Subject: initramfs: select builtin initram compression algorithm on KConfig instead of Makefile

Move the current builtin initram compression algorithm selection from the
Makefile into the INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION variable.  This makes deciding
algorithm precedence easier and would allow for overrides if new
algorithms want to be tested.
