> ZstdCompressorBase.compress()/uncompress() call Zstd's static one-shot 
> helpers (Zstd.compress, Zstd.decompress, Zstd.decompressByteArray), each of 
> which allocates a native ZSTD_CCtx/ZSTD_DCtx and frees it before returning, 
> once per chunk. 
> According to CASSANDRA-21672, profiling of the dictionary-compression path 
> found roughly 6.5% of node CPU in ZSTD_createCCtx alone at small chunk sizes, 
> and the same per-chunk allocation cost applies to plain, non-dictionary Zstd 
> compression, which is unaffected by that work. ZstdCompressor should pool a 
> reusable ZstdCompressCtx/ZstdDecompressCtx per compressor instance, instead 
> of allocating and freeing a native context on every chunk.
> That said, the plain ZstdCompressor is likely less impacted by the per chunk 
> allocation, as it typically requires larger chunk size to achieve a good 
> compression ratio. The effect of per chunk allocation is more significant for 
> small chunks such as 4KiB.
