Docs for SERVER-36074: networkMessageCompressors should default to both snappy and zlib

Details

    Description

      ----------------------------

      Original Description

      Description:

      Both snappy and zlib are now supported by default. This will need to be updated (https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/configuration-options/#net.compression.compressors). The server still prefers snappy by default, but will accept zlib compression without additional configuration.

      Engineering Ticket Description:

      Many drivers only support zlib compression, as snappy is not available as part of their core language libraries. The server should default to enabling both snappy and zlib, so users can seamlessly use compression once they enable it in a driver without custom server configuration.
