I am unsure if it makes sense to have 3 screenshots here, all possible options are shown in the uploaded screenshot. But I am open for your suggestion.

@ Documentation team: please comment on this issue.

Too technical for Joe User, and if p7zip is the default, we do not need to add this info here.

In recent ark master build from sources AES256 encryption as default for zip archives with password protection, 
but if a zip with this encryption cannot be unpacked by infozip's unzip, ark should offer another default encryption method for interoperability.
If the user selects an uncommon option here, he should get a warning about possible problems opening this archive in other programms than ark.

We should add a warning about encryption methods which cannot be processed by common archive programms.
AES128, AES192, AES256 and ZipCrypto are the available options, which are safe for interoperability, which are not?
