iso-image: enable XZ compress filter

Minimal ISO:
1m21 -> 2m25
625M -> 617M

Plasma5 ISO:
2m45 -> 5m18
1.4G -> 1.3G

Decompression speed stays about the same. It's just a few seconds for the whole
image anyways and, with that kind of speed, you're going to be bottlenecked by
IO long before the CPU.
