util: declare wire protocol support of compression engines This patch implements a new compression engine API allowing compression engines to declare support for the wire protocol. Support is declared by returning a compression format string identifier that will be added to payloads to signal the compression type of data that follows and default integer priorities of the engine. Accessor methods have been added to the compression engine manager class to facilitate use. Note that the "none" and "bz2" engines declare wire protocol support but aren't enabled by default due to their priorities being 0. It is essentially free from a coding perspective to support these compression formats, so we do it in case anyone may derive use from it.

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
