Suggestion: Add ZStandard Codec Support

[kcgen]

ZStandard Codec Support

• Likely supported via LibZStandard
• Pass-through of API settings for common ZStandard features such as: number of cores, block sizes, compression settings, and so on.
• The API will allow emulator-specific and platform-specific settings to optimize the performance of of the library.

This repo is a library for reading MAME's chd format. It doesn't have any influence over the chd format itself. For that, you'll need to open issues on https://github.com/mamedev/mame/.

Thanks @Sanaki! (Closing)

I'd imagine this applies to #34 and #36 as well. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong though.
EDIT: I read over them again, not actually sure it does.

Can this be revisited? MAME just added zstd support to chdman in this PR: mamedev/mame#11827

Should this issue be reopened until it's implemented?

[rtissera]

Yes since MAME chaman now does it.

[Sanaki]

I believe this was resolved in #106 and can be closed again.

[rtissera]

Yes, indeed, MAME team bit the bullet and implemented in chdman 0.262
It needs to be manually specified at compression time.
Closing.
