Upstream user-space zstd builds with -O3 by default, and lib/lz4/Makefile
already sets ccflags-y += -O3. However, lib/zstd/Makefile compiles at
-O2, and BIT_getMiddleBits() only enables the branchless shift-and-mask
path on x86_64, falling back to a BIT_mask[] lookup table load on arm64.

Add ccflags-y += -O3 to lib/zstd/Makefile and enable the shift-and-mask
path in BIT_getMiddleBits() on __aarch64__. On arm64, this reduces zstd
CPU cycles by ~7% and improves decompression throughput by 12-23%.
