1. build: disable v8 snapshot compression by default …

   In the upstream, V8 also disables snapshot compression on the
   desktop by default because the size reduction is not worth the
   performance hit.
   https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/v8/v8/+/3275554
   
   Locally the binary size of Node.js is increased by ~2.7MB
   (+3.2%) with a significant speedup in startup after snapshot
   compression is disabled on macOS.
   
   Also adds a --v8-enable-snapshot-compression to configure.py for
   users who prefer a size reduction over speedup in startup.
   Ideally we should implement our own compression for the source
   code + the code cache + the snapshot instead of relying on V8's
   builtin compression for just the snapshot.
