mb/google/rex: LZ4 compress ramstage instead of LZMA 

for saving boot time, change ramstage compression from LZMA to LZ4.
Boot time saving is around 35ms (30-37ms) while SPI size impact is 230KB.
For detail, refer below.

Existing: LZMA(55.6 ms)
   8:starting to load ramstage                         894,519 (0)
  15:starting LZMA decompress (ignore for x86)         903,556 (9,036)
  16:finished LZMA decompress (ignore for x86)         949,997 (46,441)
   9:finished loading ramstage                         950,179 (182)

Changed: LZ4(17.8ms)
   8:starting to load ramstage                         900,876 (0)
  17:starting LZ4 decompress (ignore for x86)          917,650 (16,774)
  18:finished LZ4 decompress (ignore for x86)          918,690 (1,040)
   9:finished loading ramstage                         918,849 (158)

Size impact (73KB * 3 = 219KB)
fallback/ramstage              0x62940    stage          240281 LZ4  (405524 decompressed)
fallback/ramstage              0x62940    stage          165452 LZMA (405524 decompressed)
