[Bug 278099] outdated version of zstd(1) is kept in the base

--- Comment #11 from Marek Zarychta <zarychtam@plan-b.pwste.edu.pl> ---
The Zstandard compressor included in the base system still appears to be quite
efficient. Using the same compression level, when part of an ISO file from an
old FreeBSD release was used as a test sample, the base system’s version
(1.5.2) compressed the file faster than the one from /usr/local (1.5.7), though
at the cost of a slightly reduced compression ratio. The tests were repeated
several times and produced consistent results.
