> Introduce an internal firmware loading helper to remove code duplication
> in our drivers and handle xz compressed firmwares by calling libarchive.
>
> This helper tries to look for .xz suffixes so that drivers are not aware
> the firmwares have been compressed.
>
> libarchive is set as an optional dependency: without libarchive, a
> runtime warning is emitted so that users know there is a compressed
> firmware.
>
> Windows implementation is left as an empty stub.
