This patch updates the following which are out of date. - Zstd has been added to the compression algorithms supported. - The filesystem mailing list (for the kernel code) is changed to linux-fsdevel rather than the now very little used Sourceforge mailing list. - The Squashfs website has been changed to the Squashfs-tools github repository. - The fact that Squashfs-tools is likely packaged by the linux distribution is mentioned.
