[PATCH v3 10/10] firmware: add support for compressed images

[Steffen Trumtrar <s.trumtrar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

At least bitstreams for FPGAs can consist of a lot of zeros depending on
device utilization. These bitstreams can be compressed very effectively.

Let the firmware code accept these images and decompress them before
handing it to the firmware-manager in question.

v2->v3 - better error handling
       - fix free'ing and close'ing
       - remove O_CREAT for devicefd. Destination is always a device
         that shall be written with a firmware (FPGA etc). If it doesn't
         exist, creating it is useless.
