Historically calls to __decompress() didn't specify "out_len" parameter
on many architectures including s390, expecting that no writes beyond
uncompressed kernel image are performed. This has changed since commit
2aa14b1ab2c4 ("zstd: import usptream v1.5.2") which includes zstd library
commit 6a7ede3dfccb ("Reduce size of dctx by reutilizing dst buffer
(#2751)"). Now zstd decompression code might store literal buffer in
the unwritten portion of the destination buffer. Since "out_len" is
not set, it is considered to be unlimited and hence free to use for
optimization needs. On s390 this might corrupt initrd or ipl report
which are often placed right after the decompressor buffer. Luckily the
size of uncompressed kernel image is already known to the decompressor,
so to avoid the problem simply specify it in the "out_len" parameter.

Move declarations to appropriate header files. Instead of cryptic
casting directly assign struct vmlinux_info type to _vmlinux_info
linker script variable - wich it actually is.

Since commit 80b6093b55e3 ("kbuild: add -Wundef to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS
for W=1 builds"), building with W=1 detects misuse of #(el)if.
$ make W=1 ARCH=s390 CROSS_COMPILE=s390x-linux-gnu-
[snip]
arch/s390/boot/decompressor.c:28:7: warning: "CONFIG_KERNEL_ZSTD" is not defined, evaluates to 0 [-Wundef]
28 | #elif CONFIG_KERNEL_ZSTD
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This issue has been hidden because arch/s390/boot/Makefile overwrites
KBUILD_CFLAGS, dropping -Wundef.
CONFIG_KERNEL_ZSTD is a bool option. #elif defined() should be used.
The line #ifdef CONFIG_KERNEL_BZIP2 is fine, but I changed it for
consistency.

The final kernel image is created by linking decompressor object files with
a startup archive. The startup archive file however does not contain only
optional code and data which can be discarded if not referenced. It also
contains mandatory object data like head.o which must never be discarded,
even if not referenced.
Move the decompresser code and linker script to the boot directory and get
rid of the startup archive so everything is kept during link time.
