[llvm] r270987 - Recommit 270977 - [llvm-mc] - Teach llvm-mc to generate zlib styled compression sections.

No, it does not have defaults now. First version of this patch (D20676) allowed to specify just "-compress-debug-section?" (without=XXX) and that would enable compressing using default method. Commited version is not compartible with gas in part of command line and requires one of compression methods to be directly specified: none, zlib or zlib-gnu.?

Best regards,
George.?
