Subject: [PATCH 00/11] xz: Updates to license, filters, and compression options

XZ Embedded, the upstream project, switched from public domain to the
BSD Zero Clause License (0BSD). Now matching SPDX license identifiers
can be added.

The new ARM64 and RISC-V filters can be used by Squashfs.

Account for the default threading change made in the xz command line
tool version 5.6.0. Tweak kernel compression options for archs that
support XZ compressed kernel.

Documentation was revised. There are minor cleanups too.
