    perf tools: Add is_compressed callback to compressions array · 8b42b7e5

    Add is_compressed callback to the compressions array, that returns 0 if
    the file is compressed or != 0 if not.
    
    The new callback is used to recognize the situation when we have a
    'compressed' object, like:
    
      /lib/modules/.../drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb.ko.xz
    
    but we need to read its debug data from debuginfo files, which might not
    be compressed, like:
    
      /root/.debug/.build-id/d6/...c4b301f/debug
    
    So even for a 'compressed' object we read debug data from a plain
    uncompressed object. To keep this transparent, we detect this in
    decompress_kmodule() and return the file descriptor to the uncompressed
    file.
