    ath79: add low_mem to tiny image
    
    Devices with SMALL_FLASH enabled have "SQUASHFS_BLOCK_SIZE=1024" in
    their config. This significantly increases the cache memory required by
    squashfs [0]. This commit enables low_mem leading to a much better
    performance because the SQUASHFS_BLOCK_SIZE is reduced to 256.
    
    Example Nanostation M5 (XM):
    The image size increases by 128 KiB. However, the memory statisitcs look
    much better:
    
    Default tiny build:
    ------
    MemTotal:          26020 kB
    MemFree:            5648 kB
    MemAvailable:       6112 kB
    Buffers:               0 kB
    Cached:             3044 kB
    
    low_mem enabled:
    -----
    MemTotal:          26976 kB
    MemFree:            6748 kB
    MemAvailable:      11504 kB
    Buffers:               0 kB
    Cached:             7204 kB
