With commit 74aacf4495 creating uncompressed .tar
packages fails.
-> Compressing package...
/usr/share/makepkg/util/compress.sh: line 70: COMPRESS.TAR[@]: invalid variable name
bsdtar: Write error
Empty the '$ext' variable for the '.tar' extension in get_compress_command() to
fix this. We would fallback to cat for 'tar' anyways.

get_compression_command() can now be used to do upfront checks for
whether a given extension is known to do something successfully. This is
useful when writing tools in which an unknown compression type is a
fatal error.

In commit 1825bd6716 this was split out
from makepkg, but the warning was not properly migrated; $ext did not
ever exist.
As a result, no matter what you did, the only possible warning was:
==> WARNING: '' is not a valid archive extension.
Fix to filter based on the presence of .tar in the argument, and
building the $ext variable for all checking and messaging purposes
within the function.

lzip is a lossless data compressor designed to replace gzip and bzip2 as
the standard general-purpose compressed format.
- add .lz (lzip) support to libmakepkg/util/compress.sh:compress_as
- add COMPRESSLZ to makepkg.conf.in
- document COMPRESSLZ
- document PKGEXT with `.tar.lz`

Adds opt-in lz4 compression of *pkg.tar files with makepkg.
This is nice to have as an option for very fast compression
and is already installed with libarchive.

This allows for more easily extending the list of allowed compression
methods, as it has to be modified in only one place.
Also allow the user to specify their own preferred command + options for
source packages in addition to compiled packages. Currently,
makepkg.conf(5) erroneously claims this is already possible.
