Summary	0000738: Provide an option to generare xdebug profiler snapshots in compressed format
Description	At the moment Xdebug profiler generates snapshot in human-readable and thus very redundant format. If user use some GUI viewer for snapshots, the more compressed format would preferable, because snapshot can be located on the remote machine and require some kind of transfering (e.g. FTP). It is also necessary that snapshot contains information about its format in the header
