Patch to address issues described.

1) /etc/periodic has special cases for zcat and bzcat,
 but not for zstd and xz which newsyslog also supports.

2) newsyslog.conf manpage does not have a xref for zstd(1).

3) usr.sbin/periodic/etc/monthly/200.accounting does not use temporary
    files appropriately.

4) periodic.conf(5) refers to "daily accounting" and
    "monthly accounting" withouth being clear that "daily"
    means process accounting and "monthly" is login accounting.
