Not having it in oe-core would mean we would have to exclude it from build testing [1]. >From what I can tell, that would be a first: Every other compression conversion is part of oe-core. It had quite some adoption lately, e.g. Fedora 31 uses zstd by default to compress their rpm packages [2]. IMHO, this are good arguments for adding it to oe-core now.
