LZMA binary packages with T2

Hi all,

due to discussion in the #t2 IRC channel I further patched our
mine installer and tweaked the build scripts to support for
lzma compressed binary packages.

LZMA allows for even higher compression compared to bzip2
with even better decompression performance. For example the
OpenOffice binary package for x86 is 83MB with bzip2 and
just 53MB with LZMA compression, ...

Maybe we should even consider making lzma the default after
some more testing in the near future.

Yours,
