Research direction
Explore the Xenia codebase to locate the log file generation logic, likely in `src/xenia/base/logging.cc`. Identify where the log file is closed at the end of execution and implement compression using a standard library like zlib. Ensure the compressed file has a descriptive name and is placed in the same directory. Check existing comments in the issue for any specific requirements about compression format or compatibility with the compatibility list submission process.
