[FEATURE]: add compression option at function call level #2877

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Grpc supports three compression options: NoCompression, Deflate, and Gzip. Currently, we do not use any compression in pymilvus.
Describe the solution you'd like
I have conducted a simple test to verify the impact of compression on QPS. In my test, I performed concurrent insert operations with large-dimensional vectors, with each insert request writing 500 vectors. The test showed that the QPS with compression enabled (Gzip)is twice that of when compression is disabled.
This may not only be meaningful for insert operations but also for search with a large NQ. Therefore, I believe we should provide a feature to enable or disable compression at the function call level.
