The aim is to improve the efficiency of computing the man pages database, which must decompress the man pages. Zstd is faster than gzip, especially for decompression, and has a similar compression ratio. * gnu/packages/commencement.scm (%final-inputs): Add zstd. * guix/build/gnu-build-system.scm (compress-documentation) Update doc. <info-compressor, info-compressor-flags, man-compressor, man-compressor-flags> <man-compressor-file-extension>: New arguments. <compressed-documentation-extension>: Rename argument to... <info-compressor-file-extension>: ... this. Add an 'extension' argument to the retarget-symlink nested procedure. Use new arguments in nested 'maybe-compress' procedure.
