x86/boot: Omit compression buffer from PE/COFF image memory footprint
[ Commit 8eace5b3 upstream ] Now that the EFI stub decompresses the kernel and hands over to the decompressed image directly, there is no longer a need to provide a decompression buffer as part of the .BSS allocation of the PE/COFF image. It also means the PE/COFF image can be loaded anywhere in memory, and setting the preferred image base is unnecessary. So drop the handling of this from the header and from the build tool.
