dsynth - Change default compression from .tgz to .txz

* Change default compression from .tgz to .txz, just so the
  results are space-efficient, even though this will slow down
  bulk builds.

* Anyone can change the compression algo via Package_suffix,
  see 'man dsynth'.  .tgz is recommended if reducing bulk build
  time is critical for you.
