Slip-up when the ocaml-compiler package was added - it has to cater for both ocaml-variants and ocaml-base-compiler and wasn't doing that correctly for ocaml-base-compiler.5.3.0 (and any later packages) when installing system-msvc.

The change in ocaml-options-vanilla.1 only affects Windows. The change in in ocaml-option-no-compression expressly allows ocaml-compiler to pull in ocaml-option-no-compression only when building for MSVC.

It's a similar wart to the handling of ocaml-option-bytecode-only - this PR at least makes the warts consistent.
