Add an option to make compression of ramstage configurable. Right now it is always compressed. On my Thinkpad, the complete boot to grub takes 4s, with around 1s required for decompressing ramstage. This is probably caused by the fact the decompression does a lot of single byte/word/qword accesses, which are really slow on SPI buses. So give the user the option to store ramstage uncompressed, if he has enough memory.
