JSZip defaults to STORE (no compression) when compression isn't specified, causing exported .docx files to be ~10x larger than the original. This adds DEFLATE as the default compression method in DocxZipper.updateZip, matching what Word and other editors produce. The compression method is configurable via the `compression` option in exportDocument/save/saveTo, allowing callers to opt into STORE for faster exports on large documents if needed.

Summary
DocxZipper.updateZipto use DEFLATE compression instead of JSZip's default of STORE (no compression), reducing exported.docxfile sizes by ~10xcompressionoption onexportDocument()/save()/saveTo(), so callers can opt into STORE for faster exports if neededContext
JSZip defaults to
STORE(no compression) whencompressionisn't specified ingenerateAsync(). Since Word and other editors use DEFLATE, a round-trip through SuperDoc was inflating file sizes significantly (e.g., a 27KB input becoming 260KB after export).Test plan
