genimage.bbclass: support compressing the generated image #114

Closed Villemoes closed 6 months ago

Villemoes commented 1 year ago

Allow the recipe to set GENIMAGE_COMPRESSION to "gzip" or "xz". Other types are trivial to add support for if desired. Even if the class doesn't yet support a given scheme, the recipe itself can just define the proper GENIMAGE_COMPRESS_DEPENDS[foo] and GENIMAGE_COMPRESS_CMD[foo].

Rebased/refreshed to the move to classes-recipe/.
