Description

I'm not sure if the upstream zstd's seek support is considered stable enough to support here, or what the most desirable interface would be from a TranscodingStreams perspective, but it would definitely useful if this feature was useable with CodecZstd.
Even if the upstream seekable format is still considered experimental, it may still be worthwhile to support here; the referenced thread makes it seem like more downstream usage of the experimental API would motivate further development/codification of the seekable format.
