@sil2100 zstd depends was added in the devel series. Historically, we
only had the depends on the tool that is needed at a time for a given
series... ie. gzip, xz, lz4, zstd.

Given that zstd compressed initrds are not supported by the linux GA
kernel in Focal, I am hesitant to impose zstd dependency on everyone in
focal.

Only .3 hwe will have support for zstd compressed initrds.

Note we don't add depends on other compression methods that are
supported either, ie. bzip2.
