libkmod: Keep track of in-kernel compression support

Browse Source 
When creating the context, read /sys/kernel/compression to check what's
the compression type supported by the kernel. This will later be used
when loading modules to check if the decompression step has to happen in
userspace or if it can be delegated to the kernel.
