   **Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe 
what you are trying to do.**
   
   `parquet::basic::ZstdLevel::try_new` accepts only levels 1 to 22 
(`MINIMUM_LEVEL = 1`, `MAXIMUM_LEVEL = 22` in `parquet/src/compression.rs`). 
zstd itself also accepts:
   
   - level `0`, which means its default level (`ZSTD_CLEVEL_DEFAULT`, 3)
   - negative "fast" levels, down to `ZSTD_minCLevel()`, which trade 
compression ratio for speed
   
   parquet-java (through zstd-jni) accepts both, so a writer that wants to 
honor a table's configured zstd level cannot do so with parquet-rs. Apache 
Iceberg tables, for example, can set `write.parquet.compression-level` to `0` 
or a negative value, and iceberg-java writes them; DataFusion Comet's native 
Iceberg writer has to fall back to the JVM writer for those tables.
   
   **Describe the solution you'd like**
   
   Let `ZstdLevel` accept the full range the linked zstd library supports 
(`zstd::compression_level_range()`), including 0 and negative levels, and pass 
them through to the encoder unchanged.
   
   **Describe alternatives you've considered**
   
   Callers can map 0 to 3 themselves, but there is no equivalent for the 
negative levels.
   
   **Additional context**
   
   `compression_level_range()` is not `const`, which is presumably why the 
bounds are hard-coded today.
