Allow Codec for compression for use with LINDI

[magland]

Motivation

(I accidentally deleted my fork, and so this is a repeat of #1162 )

While hdf5 does not allow numcodecs.Codec for compression, lindi does. Right now hdmf does type checking for the compression parameter and raises an exception if the type is not in (str, bool, int). This PR simply allows the Codec type to be passed through so that it can be used with lindi.

How to test the behavior?

Here's an example that applies a custom compressor to filtered ephys data

https://github.com/NeurodataWithoutBorders/lindi/blob/lindi-tar/examples/DANDI/preprocess_ephys.py

You need to pip install lindi and pip install qfc. See https://github.com/magland/qfc
