libz and gzip are usually split across different packages, hence there
is no guarantee that this command is always available (same comment as
for LZ4 from a couple of days ago).

I would keep the compression level to a minimum here, to limit CPU
usage but still compress something faster.

Shouldn't this be coded as a loop going through @gzip_wals?
