Hello. In light of the fiasco caused by the discovery of a backdoor in the 
component _xz_ in a known version range, is there at this time a consensus on 
compression for future releases within the RPM/DNF component developer teams, 
in order to consider moving away from **XZ Utils**, e.g. in favor of the _zstd_ 
**(Zstandard**) component?

Components pertinent for the context that currently require it:
```
$ dnf -q rq --installed --alldeps --whatrequires xz-libs --qf '%{name} v. 
%{version}' \
| grep -E 'rpm|dnf|^libdnf|^libsolv'
deltarpm v. 3.6.3
libsolv v. 0.7.28
rpm-libs v. 4.19.1.1
```
P.S. _xz-libs_ component provides _/usr/lib64/liblzma.so*_.
