[PATCH 3/6] arm64: Kconfig: Pick decompressing method for kexec file load

After introducing the zboot image, kexec file load should be able to
decompress the Image.gz. (Do in the later patch)
Unlike efi_zboot_entry() which knows the decompression method at the
built time, kexec may loads compressed kernels with variant compression
methods, hence it is helpful to include as many decompression method as
possible. Here provide an opportunity to let users select at their
will.
Besides this, introduce an extra config option 'HAVE_KEXEC_DECOMPRESS' to
distinguish the reference to decompression routine between kexec and boot.
(used in later patch to keep the routine out of .init.text section)
