firmware_loader: rework crypto dependencies

The crypto dependencies for the firmwware loader are incomplete,
in particular a built-in FW_LOADER fails to link against a modular
crypto hash driver:

ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: crypto_alloc_shash
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: crypto_shash_digest
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: crypto_destroy_tfm
>>> referenced by main.c
>>> drivers/base/firmware_loader/main.o:(fw_log_firmware_info) in archive vmlinux.a

Rework this to use the usual 'select' from the driver module,
to respect the built-in vs module dependencies, and add a
more verbose crypto dependency to the debug option to prevent
configurations that lead to a link failure.

firmware_loader: enable XZ by default if compressed support is enabled

Commit 23cfbc6ec44e ("firmware: Add the support for ZSTD-compressed
firmware files") added support for ZSTD compression, but in the process
also made the previously default XZ compression a config option.

That means that anybody who upgrades their kernel and does a

make oldconfig

to update their configuration, will end up without the XZ compression
that the configuration used to have.

Add the 'default y' to make sure this doesn't happen.

The whole compression question should probably be improved upon, since
it is now possible to "enable" compression in the kernel config but not
enable any actual compression algorithm, which makes it all very
useless. It makes no sense to ask Kconfig questions that enable
situations that are nonsensical like that.

This at least fixes the immediate problem of a kernel update resulting
in a nonbootable machine because of a missed option.

firmware_loader: Add firmware-upload support

Extend the firmware subsystem to support a persistent sysfs interface that
userspace may use to initiate a firmware update. For example, FPGA based
PCIe cards load firmware and FPGA images from local FLASH when the card
boots. The images in FLASH may be updated with new images provided by the
user at his/her convenience.

A device driver may call firmware_upload_register() to expose persistent
"loading" and "data" sysfs files. These files are used in the same way as
the fallback sysfs "loading" and "data" files. When 0 is written to
"loading" to complete the write of firmware data, the data is transferred
to the lower-level driver using pre-registered call-back functions. The
data transfer is done in the context of a kernel worker thread.

firmware_loader: Split sysfs support from fallback

In preparation for sharing the "loading" and "data" sysfs nodes with the
new firmware upload support, split out sysfs functionality from fallback.c
and fallback.h into sysfs.c and sysfs.h. This includes the firmware
class driver code that is associated with the sysfs files and the
fw_fallback_config support for the timeout sysfs node.

CONFIG_FW_LOADER_SYSFS is created and is selected by
CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER in order to include sysfs.o in
firmware_class-objs.

This is mostly just a code reorganization. There are a few symbols that
change in scope, and these can be identified by looking at the header
file changes. A few white-space warnings from checkpatch are also
addressed in this patch.

firmware: Add the support for ZSTD-compressed firmware files

As the growing demand on ZSTD compressions, there have been requests
for the support of ZSTD-compressed firmware files, so here it is:
this patch extends the firmware loader code to allow loading ZSTD
files. The implementation is fairly straightforward, it just adds a
ZSTD decompression routine for the file expander. (And the code is
even simpler than XZ thanks to the ZSTD API that gives the original
decompressed size from the header.)

firmware: Add support for loading compressed files

This patch adds the support for loading compressed firmware files.
The primary motivation is to reduce the storage size; e.g. currently
the files in /lib/firmware on my machine counts up to 419MB, while
they can be reduced to 130MB by file compression.

The patch introduces a new kconfig option CONFIG_FW_LOADER_COMPRESS.
Even with this option set, the firmware loader still tries to load the
original firmware file as-is at first, but then falls back to the file
with ".xz" extension when it's not found, and the decompressed file
content is returned to the caller of request_firmware(). So, no
change is needed for the rest.

Currently only XZ format is supported. A caveat is that the kernel XZ
helper code supports only CRC32 (or none) integrity check type, so
you'll have to compress the files via xz -C crc32 option.

Since we can't determine the expanded size immediately from an XZ
file, the patch re-uses the paged buffer that was used for the
user-mode fallback; it puts the decompressed content page, which are
vmapped at the end. The paged buffer code is conditionally built with
a new Kconfig that is selected automatically.
