The kernel has supported compressed firmware for quite some time. So
let's add a couple of targets to produce that. In practical terms this
means it we'll use ~5x times less space on disk.
Reportedly the amd ucode, needs to be uncompressed _within_ the
initrd in order to work. Using compressed ucode in late load just works.
Ideally this will be addressed by the initrd generators, but considering
the files are tiny in size let's skip the compression.
v2
- commit message, skip compression for files annotated as Raw
v3
- rebase

As mentioned by shellcheck backticks are considered legacy. Plus we
should ensure the output is quoted, otherwise we'll get word splitting.

Add space between the arguments and pattern and combine patterns where
possible.

Properly quote, otherwise we'll get word splitting. In other words:
Files might end up installed to /some/foo/, where /some path/foo bar/ is
expected.
v2:
- rebase/split && also quote the $() output

mkdir -p creates paths that are bound to user's settings and therefore
can lead to different file mode bits of the base paths accross different
machines.
Use install instead, as this tool is not prone to such behavior.

File: entries in the WHENCE file overwrite existing files in the target
directory, however, Link: entries are skipped if the file exists in the
target directory. This can cause issues if the Link: entry is updated, but
the target directory contains an old symlink. Do not skip writing Link:
entries if the file exists, always create the symlink. This matches the
behavior of File: entries and ensures symlinks will contain values from
the WHENCE file.

Rather than require symlinks to be created in the filesystem and have
duplicate Link: entries in the WHENCE file, make copy-firmware.sh create
the symlinks on the fly.

The current make-install procedure leaves lots of garbage files that
aren't really firmware files in /lib/firmware.
Instead of copy-all-and-prune approach, copy only the listed files and
links in WHENCE by make-install for assuring only the proper firmware
files.
