Add a configuration option to enforce an item size limit on the client side. This avoids sending large items
over the wire and getting rejected by the server which can cause delays. The default is 0 for no limit.
The same error code RES_E2BIG is used for the client side limit as for the server side limit.
This adds zstd compression support.
The current two options, zlib and fastlz is basically a choice between performance and compression ratio.
You would choose zlib if you are memory-bound and fastlz if you are cpu-bound. With zstd, you get the
performance of fastlz with the compression of zlib. And often it wins on both. See this benchmark I ran
on json files of varying sizes: https://gist.github.com/rlerdorf/788f3d0144f9c5514d8fee9477cbe787
Taking just a 40k json blob, we see that zstd at compression level 3 reduces it to 8862 bytes. Our current
zlib 1 gets worse compression at 10091 bytes and takes longer both to compress and decompress.

The fact that decompression a dramatically faster with zstd is a win for most common memcache uses
since they tend to be read-heavy. The PR also adds a `memcache.compression_level` INI switch which
currently only applies to zstd compression. It could probably be made to also apply to zlib and fastlz.
The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.
In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.
This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
Provides a new INI option to select the same consistent hash behavior as
older versions of php-memcached, to aid in migration from PHP 5.x to PHP
7.x. When `memcached_sess_consistent_hash_type` is set to `ketama` or
`ketama_weighted`, that sets either MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_KETAMA or
MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_KETAMA_WEIGHTED, respectively.
