initramfs: generalize initramfs_data.xxx.S variants
Remove initramfs_data.{lzo,lzma,gz,bz2}.S variants and use a common
implementation in initramfs_data.S. The common implementation expects the
file name of the initramfs to be defined in INITRAMFS_IMAGE.
Change the Makefile to set the INITRAMFS_IMAGE define symbol according
to the selected compression method.
