Linux sysroots should be compressed with xz instead of gzip

Project Member Reported by thestig@chromium.org, Jun 28 2016

Issue description

In [1], I took the 35 MB gzip'd Linux sysroot tarball and recompressed it with xz -9. The xz compressed tarball is only 19 MB.

We should fix the creation scripts in build/linux/sysroot_scripts to compress with xz, and install-sysroot.py to handle both .gz and .xz files.

The actual packages will be updated next time someone uses the sysroot creator scripts.
