RFC - patch to reduce peak memory usage by disabling compression

Rationale:

Reduce RAM usage by removing compression/decompression altogether.

Even trivial compression schemes require a working buffer,
hence all compression schemes and not only the most memory
hungry are removed.

I've introduced a define JFFS2_COMPRESS which is 1 in os-linux.h,
and which eCos can make configurable via its CDL files.
