Improved comments on the sqlar.c and compress.c extensions that describe

the differences between the "zlib format" used by SQLAR, the raw deflate
format used by ZIP, and the custom format used by compress.c.  No changes
to code.

** If the type of X is SQLITE_BLOB, and compressing that blob using
** zlib utility function compress() yields a smaller blob, return the
** compressed blob. Otherwise, return a copy of X.
**
** SQLar uses the "zlib format" for compressed content. The zlib format
** contains a two-byte identification header and a four-byte checksum at
** the end. This is different from ZIP which uses the raw deflate format.
**
** Future enhancements to SQLar might add support for new compression formats.
** If so, those new formats will be identified by alternative headers in the
** compressed data.
