[PATCH v2 12/12] firmware: add support for compressed images

[Steffen Trumtrar <s.trumtrar@pengutronix.de>]

At least bitstreams for FPGAs can consist of a lot of zeros depending on
device utilization. These bitstreams can be compressed very effectively.

Let the firmware code accept these images and decompress them before
handing it to the firmware-manager in question.
