libdeflate decompresses much faster than gzip.
Example:
~/d/openwrt> time gzip -dc dl/cmake-3.25.1.tar.gz > /dev/null

sys time 32.21 millis 0.25 millis 31.96 millis
~/d/openwrt> time libdeflate-gzip -dc dl/cmake-3.25.1.tar.gz > /dev/null

Executed in 523.04 millis fish external
usr time 415.48 millis 1.07 millis 414.41 millis

~/d/openwrt> time gzip -dc dl/tessdata-4.1.0.tar.gz > /dev/null

Executed in 8.99 secs fish external
usr time 8.90 secs 530.00 micros 8.90 secs
sys time 0.07 secs 63.00 micros 0.07 secs
~/d/openwrt> time libdeflate-gzip -dc dl/tessdata-4.1.0.tar.gz > /dev/null
________________________________________________________
Executed in 2.74 secs fish external
usr time 2.38 secs 537.00 micros 2.38 secs
sys time 0.35 secs 66.00 micros 0.35 secs
Place libdeflate into tools-core as it is needed to decompress other
archives.
