erofs: update compression algorithm status
The following changes are proposed in the upcoming Linux 7.0:
- Enable LZMA support by default, as it's already in use by Fedora 42/43
and some Android vendors for minimal filesystem sizes;
- Promote DEFLATE and Zstandard out of EXPERIMENTAL status, given that
they have been landed and well-tested for over a year and are
already ready for general use.
