Description

When you run a build against the K8s example with the --experimental_remote_cache_compression flag, it complains that the remote store doesn't support compression. This could give off a false impression that NativeLink doesn't support compression.

NativeLink does support compression, but the config we currently use in the examples doesn't. We should change the config to a better default to prevent this confusion.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the current K8s config files in the examples directory, understand how compression is configured in NativeLink, and modify the YAML to enable compression by default.
