Allow encryption without compression

Add a `compress` option to ActiveRecord::Encryption::Encryptor, which
defaults to `true`. When set to `false`, the encryptor will never
compress the data.

This is useful for cases where the data is already compressed.

This can be used with the `encryptor` option in the model:

```ruby
class Record < ApplicationRecord
  encrypts :field, encryptor: ActiveRecord::Encryption::Encryptor.new(compress: false)
end
```
