Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] kbuild: Enable decompression for use by EXTRA_FIRMWARE

The build system can currently only compress files. This patch adds the
functionality to decompress files. Decompression is needed for building
firmware files into the kernel if those files are compressed on the
filesystem. Compressed firmware files are in use by Gentoo, Fedora, Arch,
and others.

Changes in v2:
- Skipped running 'cat' and now just pass the file names directly.
- Added '--quiet' since 'zstd' started printing the status of each file
now that it knows the file names.
