Description

Zstd isn't using the commons codec, so we should rename CommonsCompressionFactory to something more generic, and the existing LZ4 implementation to something potentially more generic.

**Reporter**: [Micah Kornfield](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12115) / @emkornfield

**Note**: *This issue was originally created as [ARROW-12115](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12115). Please see the [migration documentation](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/14542) for further details.*
