Make distribution tarball compression format configurable
By default, bzip2 compression is selected (which is what has been used till now). Additionally, by setting the TAR_COMP make variable to one of the values "bzip2", "gzip", or "xz", an explicit compression format can be requested for the distribution tarballs. For instance, invoking make TAR_COMP=xz sdist-ghc will result in a tarball `./sdistprep/ghc-7.9.20140226-src.tar.xz` Signed-off-by: Herbert Valerio Riedel <hvr@gnu.org>
