Change from old bzip2 to newer and supported faster bzip3 or lbzip2 or other faster codec

See

And old bzip2: not updated since 2019
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bzip2
https://sourceware.org/bzip2/

Or parallel lbzip2
lbzip2 https://github.com/caius72/lbzip2

Bzip3 is faster by Silesia corpus benchmark

So a transition to lbzip2 or bzip3 or a new faster codec like Zstandard, lz4 or others should be done.

Does FreeCAD build against one of those if we include it here?

Does FreeCAD build against one of those if we include it here?

I see bzip2 in the list. So I see here improvement potential with bzip3 or other better codecs.
Does FreeCAD use this to create installation packages in dev?
Or is here a use to compress results or other calculation files?

Can you ask this at FreeCAD dev or should I make an issue or discussion about that?
