[PNG] zstd supports restart markers

Hello everyone,

We're looking into multithreaded PNG encoding/decoding, which would rely on
deflate's restart markers.
We're also looking into other compressors, like zstd.

Zstandard supports frames, which have the same effect as deflate's restart
markers.

Just spreading the information.
