move fork differences to FAQ
...
it seems now that the fork is more of historical value than a current
thing. people interested in the differences between borg and attic can
look in the FAQ, but I do not see why this is present in the README.
a new section regarding compatibility is created to keep that warning
in place.

docs: use zlib,6 compression in some examples, fixes #275

This is what attic used by default, but borgbackup defaults to "no compression".
I just adjusted the command invocation, so we can keep the example output
(which shows that stuff was compressed).
Also: add FAQ item about compression.
