Add a bitmap for available compression algorithms and a variable-sized on-disk table for compression options in preparation for upcoming big pcluster and LZMA algorithm, which follows the end of super block. To parse the compression options, the bitmap is scanned one by one. For each available algorithm, there is data followed by 2-byte `length' correspondingly (it's enough for most cases, or entire fs blocks should be used.) With such available algorithm bitmap, kernel itself can also refuse to mount such filesystem if any unsupported compression algorithm exists. Note that COMPR_CFGS feature will be enabled with BIG_PCLUSTER.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
