During a zswap store attempt, the compression algorithm could fail (for
e.g due to the page containing incompressible random data).  This is not
tracked in any of existing zswap counters, making it hard to monitor for
and investigate.  We have run into this problem several times in our
internal investigations on zswap store failures.

This patch adds a dedicated debugfs counter for compression algorithm
failures.
