> Default setting (yaml) for SSTable compression

> In many situations the choice of compression for sstables is more relevant to
> the disks attached than to the schema and data.
> This issue is to add to cassandra.yaml a default value for sstable
> compression that new tables will inherit (instead of the defaults found in
> {{CompressionParams.DEFAULT}}.
> Examples where this can be relevant are filesystems that do on-the-fly
> compression (btrfs, zfs) or specific disk configurations or even specific C*
> versions (see CASSANDRA-10995 ).
> +Additional information for newcomers+
> Some new fields need to be added to {{cassandra.yaml}} to allow specifying
> the field required for defining the default compression parameters. In
> {{DatabaseDescriptor}} a new {{CompressionParams}} field should be added for
> the default compression. This field should be initialized in
> {{DatabaseDescriptor.applySimpleConfig()}}. At the different places where
> {{CompressionParams.DEFAULT}} was used the code should call
> {{DatabaseDescriptor#getDefaultCompressionParams}} that should return some
> copy of configured {{CompressionParams}}.
> Some unit test using {{OverrideConfigurationLoader}} should be used to test
> that the table schema use the new default when a new table is created (see
> CreateTest for some example).
