Bindings to Zstandard (zstd)

Greetings,

the recent fuss about Google Chrome adding Zstandard support made me look into Facebook’s compression library, decide it to be useful, and therefore, write Fortran 2018 bindings for it: fortran-zstd. In comparison to zlib, the zstd library is generally faster and offers better compression. The bindings library is mostly unopinionated, but currently lacks interfaces to the dictionary functions and additional tests of the streaming API (to be done).
