encode: Tweak compression settings (#4215)

* Tweak compression settings

zstd: Limit window sizes to 128K to keep memory in control both server and client size.
zstd: Write 0 length frames. This may be needed for compatibility.
zstd: Create fewer encoders. Small memory improvement.
gzip: Allow -2 (Huffman only) and -3 (stateless) compression modes.

* Update modules/caddyhttp/encode/zstd/zstd.go

Update docs.
