Fangrui Song a41977dd0f [Support] Add llvm::compression::{getReasonIfUnsupported,compress,decompress} ...

as high-level API on top of `llvm::compression::{zlib,zstd}::*`:

* getReasonIfUnsupported: return nullptr if the specified format is
  supported, or (if unsupported) a string like `LLVM was not built with LLVM_ENABLE_ZLIB ...`
* compress: dispatch to zlib::uncompress or zstd::uncompress
* decompress: dispatch to zlib::uncompress or zstd::uncompress

Move `llvm::DebugCompressionType` from MC to Support to avoid Support->MC cyclic
dependency. There are 40+ uses in llvm-project.

Add another enum class `llvm::compression::Format` to represent supported
compression formats, which may be a superset of ELF compression formats.

See D130458 (llvm-objcopy --{,de}compress-debug-sections for zstd) for a use
case.

Note: this patch alone will cause -Wswitch to llvm/lib/ObjCopy/ELF/ELFObject.cpp
