util: extract compression code in `mercurial.utils.compression`
The code seems large enough to be worth extracting. This is similar to what was
done for various module in `mercurial/utils/`.
Since None of the compression logic takes a `ui` objet, issuing deprecation
warning is tricky. Luckly the logic does not seems to have many external users.
