grimar added a comment.

A question: do we need to specify the particular compression level in docs? My feeling is that
belongs to internal implementation, it is not really useful for user to know the level probably?

Imagine if we switch to another zlib implementation, like was suggested in the original PR,
what if it doesn't have these levels (I do not know if it has).

What would be probably better is to say something like:
"By default we use a compression, that is fast and effective enough, but if you want to
reduce the size of debug sections even more, you can specify -O2 to enable more aggressive,
but slower compression"
