MIPS: Make the debugging of compressed kernel configurable 



This patch adds a new DEBUG_ZBOOT option to allow the users to enable it
to debug the compressed kernel support for a new board and this optoin
should be disabled to reduce the kernel image size and speed up the
kernel booting procedure when the compressed kernel support is stable.

	  SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT_UART16550 for your board and enable this option to

	  If your board doesn't support uart16550 compatible serial port, you

	  can try to select SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT and use the other methods to

	  debug it. for example, add a new serial port support just as

	  arch/mips/boot/compressed/uart-16550.c does.



	  After the compressed kernel support works, please disable this option

	  to reduce the kernel image size and speed up the booting procedure a
