[NEW] Support network compression on valkey, with possible algorithms like lz4, zstd, gzip.

[rohan-changejar]

Significant improvement when dealing with huge payloads and reduce network bandwidth costs

With current case, the network usage in cases of huge payload sizes will eventually end up costing significant amounts of money and possible hit on performance too

Configurable network compression parameters

Give an option with parameters which can be enabled and clients like redission which promise support for valkey can leverage this.

Any additional information that is relevant to the feature request.

Although not directly related, posting here some references to network compression being implemented on DBs like mongo

Was looking for exactly the same for my project. Would be great to have this

Love this idea!

@hpatro investigated this a bit in Redis with redis/redis#6809, but that issue was originally more focused on moving away from lzf.
