There has been efforts to compress arbitrary ELF sections 
(https://maskray.me/blog/2023-07-07-compressed-arbitrary-sections), however, it 
may take time. Also, it may not apply to COFF on Windows. To achieve high 
compression ratio, using zstd to compress all code objects together is 
critical, therefore need a format that aggregates all code objects and compress 
them together.
