From: Stefan Herbrechtsmeier <stefan.herbrechtsmeier at weidmueller.com>

Add gzip bintool to binman to support on-the-fly compression of Linux
kernel images and FPGA bitstreams. The SPL basic fitImage implementation
supports only gzip decompression.

Signed-off-by: Stefan Herbrechtsmeier <stefan.herbrechtsmeier at weidmueller.com>
