As the title says.
Thanks for considering.

We love ImageJ, but the lack of zstd support forces us to "compromise" on what we think is great image compression.

I know bioformats exists, but the extra popup really frustrates many of our new users.

I think this should be quite safe to add. Please let me know what you think.

It tries to take advantage of whatever zstd compressor is already bundled, or simply fails

I like this given that GDAL, rasterio, and tifffile can all output ZSTD-compressed TIFFs.
