Impact: Kconfig noise reduction, documentation
The default initramfs is so small that it makes no sense to worry
about the additional memory taken by not double-compressing it.
Therefore, don't bug the user with it.
Also, improve the description of the option, which was downright
incorrect.

Impact: message formatting
Consistently spell LZMA in all capitals, since it (unlike gzip or
bzip2) is an acronym.

Impact: Kconfig clarification
Make it clear that the CONFIG_RD_* options are about what formats are
supported, not about what formats are actually being used.

Impact: reduce Kconfig noise
Move the options that control possible initramfs/initrd compressions
underneath CONFIG_EMBEDDED. The only impact of leaving these options
set to y is additional code in the init section of the kernel; there
is no reason to burden non-embedded users with these options.

Impact: Avoids silent environment dependency
Make builtin initramfs compression an explicit configurable. The
previous version would pick a compression based on the binaries which
were installed on the system, which could lead to unexpected results.
It is now explicitly configured, and not having the appropriate
binaries installed on the build host is simply an error.

Impact: Partial resolution of build failure
Move the initrd/initramfs configuration options from
drivers/block/Kconfig to usr/Kconfig, since they do not and should not
depend on CONFIG_BLK_DEV. This fixes builds when CONFIG_BLK_DEV=n.

Move initramfs options from Device Drivers | Block Drivers to General Setup
This is a more natural place for this option.
Furthermore separate out intramfs options to usr/Kconfig
