fadump: do not use squash to reduce image size
With commit fa9201b2 ("fadump: isolate fadump initramfs image within
the default one"), initramfs image gets to hold two squash images, one
for production kernel boot purpose and the other for capture kernel
boot. Having separate images improved reliability for both production
kernel and capture kernel boot scenarios, but the size of initramfs
image became considerably larger.
Instead of having squash images, compressing $initdir without using
squash images reduced the size of initramfs image for fadump case by
around 30%. So, avoid using squash for fadump case.
