-------------------
A new NSO compression method was introduced in Switch 22.0.0. This is a
customized variant of zstd and is used when NSO flags have bit 7 set.

Key characteristics:
  - ZSTD_MAGICNUMBER is set to 0x4349425A (b'ZBIC') instead of 0xFD2FB528
  - ZSTD_LEGACY_SUPPORT is set to 0
  - ZSTD_TRACE is set to 1, zstd version used is 1.5.7 (10507)
  - FSE_readNCount is replaced with a BIC (Binary Interpolative Coding)
    version which improves compression of entropy tables significantly

Source: https://switchbrew.org/wiki/22.0.0

Implementation:
  - Detect ZBIC segments via NSO flag bit 7 (NsoFlags_UseZbicCompression)
    and/or ZBIC magic scan in nso.cpp
  - Fall back to LZ4 when ZBIC is not detected or returns unexpected size
  - Handle segment 0 alternate offset (0x100 vs 0x108) for both ZBIC and LZ4
