Please let's not. Then somebody will need options to .config c/d dicts
for zstd/lz4/lz4hc, acceleration levels for lz4, compression level for
deflate and so on and on and on.

This should work, but you need to configure algo params before you init
zram device (that is _before_ write to disksize device attr).
E.g.
% modprobe zram
% echo zstd > /sys/block/zram0/comp_algorithm
% echo "algo=zstd level=9 dict=/etc/zstd-dict-amd64" > /sys/block/zram0/algorithm_params
% echo 1G > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
