Add support for xz compressed data.tar member of binary packages
Use the xz command from xz-utils to support xz-compressed binary
packages. Add xz-utils to dpkg's Pre-Depends.
The xz format is very similar to the lzma format, but it fixes
some omissions in the latter, most notably a magic number for
identification by file(1).
Closes: #542160
