Conversation
Add a short section explaining that snapshots are now compressed by default and incremental after the first capture. The first scale-to-zero cycle pays the full cost; later cycles only capture changed memory and state, making subsequent suspend/resume cheaper and faster.

Summary
Add a short section to the public Snapshots feature page describing two user-visible properties of the v0.9 snapshotting core:
What's intentionally not in this PR
The deeper architectural changes from the v0.9 update (copy-on-write checkpointing, sync vs. async snapshot modes, VMM-fork mechanism) are operator-internal concerns and aren't appropriate for the public docs. Those will go to the enterprise docs in a separate PR.
Verification
Risk flag
The user-visible claims here ("compressed by default", "incremental after first") are based on the v0.9 platform team update slides. If the actual user-visible defaults differ — for example, if compression requires a flag, or if incremental behavior is gated on something else — please flag during review.
Audit reference
Item #1 (new snapshotting core) from the v0.9 docs audit, public-docs scope.
