The compression filter driver is introduced as suggested by Max.
A sample usage of the filter can be found in the test #214.
Now, multiple clusters can be written compressed.
It is useful for the backup job.

v6: The new approach to write compressed data was applied. The patch
    v5 4/4 with the block-stream compress test case was removed from
    the series.
    Discussed in the email thread with the message ID
