    .SYNOPSIS
        Converts a string to a MemoryStream object.
    .DESCRIPTION
        Converts a string to a MemoryStream object.
    .PARAMETER String
        A string object for conversion.
    .PARAMETER Encoding
        The encoding to use for conversion.
        Defaults to UTF8.
        Valid options are ASCII, BigEndianUnicode, Default, Unicode, UTF32, UTF7, and UTF8.
    .PARAMETER Compress
        If supplied, the output will be compressed using Gzip.
    .EXAMPLE
        $stream = ConvertFrom-StringToMemoryStream -String 'A string'
        $stream.GetType()
        IsPublic IsSerial Name BaseType
        -------- -------- ---- --------
        True True MemoryStream System.IO.Stream
    .EXAMPLE
        $stream = 'A string' | ConvertFrom-StringToMemoryStream
        $stream.GetType()
        IsPublic IsSerial Name BaseType
