mksquashfs allows to tweak many compressions parameters. Currently they
can't be changed from kmenu. Leaving out potential space savings.
This adds the option to enable a set of predetermined compression
options. This option is enabled by default for lz4 since lz4 currently
implicitly added the extreme to it in the makefile. So this aids in
keeping backward compatibility.

One advantage of squashfs over similar technologies is the support for
bigger block sizes. However the default size is not a lot bigger
(typically 128k if no `-b` flag specified).
This patch adds the ability to select from common block sizes
which for example can aid in improving compression ratio.

Add an option to enable/disable padding to a multiple of 4k. Padding is
the default as it also was the past default behaviour.

[Peter: remove now unused BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_2010_05 symbol]

In order to keep better track of when a feature got deprecated, and hence
when it can be removed, a new set of symbols BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx is
introduced. These symbols are automatically selected when BR2_DEPRECATED is
selected, and thus are transparent to the user.
A deprecated feature will no longer depend on BR2_DEPRECATED directly, but
rather on the appropriate BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx. If that symbol does
not yet exist, it has to be created in Config.in.
When removing a deprecated feature, one should also check whether this was
the last feature using the BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx symbol, in which
case the latter can be removed from Config.in.
A followup patch will make sure the overview is added to the list of
deprecated features in the manual, so that a buildroot core developer can
easily determine which features to remove in a given development cycle.
