[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 1/2] image: android: allow booting lz4-compressed kernels

According to Android image format [1], kernel image resides at 1 page
offset from the boot image address. Grab the magic number from there
and allow U-Boot to handle LZ4-compressed KNL binaries instead of
hardcoding compression type to IH_COMP_NONE. Other compression types,
if needed, can be added later.
Tested on H3ULCB-KF using the image detailed in [2].
[1] Excerpt from include/android_image.h
+-----------------+
| boot header | 1 page

| kernel | n pages

| ramdisk | m pages

| second stage | o pages

v2:
- [Marek] Relocate LZ4F_MAGIC from lib/lz4_wrapper.c to
include/image.h. This could be factored out into a standalone
non-functional change if needed (having it included in this patch
reveals its true purpose though)
- [Marek] Use get_unaligned() primitive in accordance with
doc/README.unaligned-memory-access.txt. NOTE: get_unaligned_le32()
looks more appropriate, since the lz4 magic is stored in LE32:
https://github.com/lz4/lz4/blob/f66abc45d9b96/lib/lz4frame.c#L659
- Drop switch-case in favor of if-else, since the magic numbers
of other compression types are not necessarily 32-bit wide
(handling a void pointer looks to be more generic)
- Keep android_image_get_kcomp() of type 'ulong' to please the eye
(to stay in harmony with other android_image_get_* functions), even
if its true return value merely needs a signed/unsigned int
- Static analysis: sparse, smatch and `make W=1` are all silent
- Runtime: boot-tested on H3ULCB-KF using an Android boot image
containing a lz4-compressed kernel
