Tiered early abort, zstd edition

Description

Tiered early abort, zstd edition

It turns out that "do LZ4 and zstd-1 both fail" is a great heuristic
for "don't even bother trying higher zstd tiers".

By way of illustration:
$ cat /incompress | mbuffer | zfs recv -o compression=zstd-12 evenfaster/lowcomp_1M_zstd12_normal
summary: 39.8 GiByte in 3min 40.2sec - average of 185 MiB/s
$ echo 3 | sudo tee /sys/module/zzstd/parameters/zstd_lz4_pass
3
$ cat /incompress | mbuffer -m 4G | zfs recv -o compression=zstd-12 evenfaster/lowcomp_1M_zstd12_patched
summary: 39.8 GiByte in 48.6sec - average of 839 MiB/s
$ sudo zfs list -p -o name,used,lused,ratio evenfaster/lowcomp_1M_zstd12_normal evenfaster/lowcomp_1M_zstd12_patched
NAME USED LUSED RATIO
evenfaster/lowcomp_1M_zstd12_normal 39549931520 42721221632 1.08
evenfaster/lowcomp_1M_zstd12_patched 39626399744 42721217536 1.07
$ python3 -c "print(39626399744 - 39549931520)"
76468224
$

I'll take 76 MB out of 42 GB for > 4x speedup.
