Squashfs allows configuring a blocksize between 4KB and 1MB. The default is
128KB. Increasing blocksize, in general, increases compression efficiency
at a cost of increased access time. Using 256KB for a blocksize appears to be
a sweet spot balancing the two for gzip and zstd. Blocksize 512KB appears
right for lzo.
Gzip decreases by ~700KB.
Lzo decreases by ~1.25MB.
Zstd decreaes by ~2.5MB.

For ZSTD, this saves about 500kb on img.gz size.
