Public bug reported:

I would like to be able to pass additional arguments to the compression
method to get added during the creation. Something like:

[compression]
method=pigz
inline=yes
level=3
options="-p 40"

The main reason is that pigz supports a "-p N" option to limit the
number of threads (hence cores) that it will use when launched; this
option capability will allow us to ensure there are cores reserved for
MySQL to operate on during a massive pigz cycle that would normally
utilize all 48 cores on a Production server.
