Add a new release build variable, WITH_COMPRESSED_IMAGES.
When set to a non-empty value, the installation medium is
compressed with gzip(1) as part of the 'install' target in
the release/ directory.
With gzip(1) compression, downloadable image are reduced in
size quite significantly. Build test against head@263927
shows the following:
bootonly.iso: 64% smaller
disc1.iso: 44% smaller
memstick.img: 47% smaller
mini-memstick.img: 65% smaller
dvd1.iso: untested
This option is off by default, I would eventually like to
turn it on by default, and remove the '-k' flag to gzip(1)
so only compressed images are published on FTP.
