Why I did it
Same with #21824
Enabled the docker inram feature for slim image.
It would extract the docker image to ram during the boot, so it would take extra times during boot.

How I did it
Use pzstd which is more efficient tool to compress and decompress the docker file to reduce the boot time.
Currently, we do not modify the "FILESYSTEM_DOCKERFS=dockerfs.tar.gz" in onie-image.conf, so for slim image, we still use dockerfs.tar.gz as file name but actually with zstd compressed.
We tried to find out a way to adjust the file name in onie-image.conf, but it seems not easy to do that.
So we use the file cmd to determine the compressing type in union-mount.j2, then use the related cmd to extract the docker file.
Plan to support zstd for all types of images in the future to unify the docker file image .
How to verify it
Boot swi slim image and normal image, boot mellanox bin image, all boot successfully.
