[syslog-ng] compression during tls

[thejaguar at tutanota.de]

Hi all,

According to this https://www.balabit.com/documents/syslog-ng-ose-latest-guides/en/syslog-ng-ose-guide-admin/html/tlsoptions.html

Allow-compression() should be a working option under tls.

I did google on this a lot and found no config snippetwhich shows allow-compress() to be working and to my surprise when I tried toinclude it in my config I get syntax error ___________________________________________________
