Details

In the new dump_syms we use cab crate to uncompress cab files and it's possible compress data too.
So since we've already the pdb buffer when dumping the symbol, we could in parallel compress it.
On my linux, I used lcab to compress a xul.pdb (~1Gb) and it takes ~28 seconds.
So it could help to reduce time spent in CI.

Note there's also bug 1635150 about not compressing at all.
