Add feature in wwbootstrap to extract kernel, modules, and firmware from a VNFS archive (or any other archive format that bsdtar support).
Update default archive tool and compression tool to bsdcpio and pigz respectively. bsdcpio adds support for xattrs by default in VNFS, and pigz is a parallel gzip. The initrd already uses bsdtar for decompression, which supports the cpio archives from bsdcpio.
