[PATCH] f2fs: compress: Allow modular (de)compression algorithms

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

If F2FS_FS is modular, enabling the compressions options
F2FS_FS_{LZ4,LZ4HZ,LZO,LZORLE,ZSTD} will make the (de)compression
algorithms {LZ4,LZ4HC,LZO,ZSTD}_{,DE}COMPRESS builtin instead of
modular, as the former depend on an intermediate boolean
F2FS_FS_COMPRESSION, which in-turn depends on tristate F2FS_FS.

Indeed, if a boolean symbol A depends directly on a tristate symbol B
and selects another tristate symbol C:

    tristate B

    tristate C

    bool A
      depends on B
      select C

and B is modular, then C will also be modular.

However, if there is an intermediate boolean D in the dependency chain
between A and B:

    tristate B

    tristate C

    bool D
      depends on B

    bool A
      depends on D
      select C

then the modular state won't propagate from B to C, and C will be
builtin instead of modular.

Fix this by making the various compression options depend directly on
F2FS_FS using a big if/endif block.  Drop the now superfluous
dependencies on F2FS_FS from individual symbols.

Perhaps the propagation logic in Kconfig should be fixed instead?
Else people may reintroduce this issue when removing seemingly-unneeded
dependencies.
