[Buildroot] [git commit] fs/squashfs: Add block size option

[Yann E. MORIN]

commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=555f8dfd6ef893463ce19d5ee242afd6b83cb450
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

One advantage of squashfs over similar technologies is the support for
bigger block sizes. However the default size is not a lot bigger
(typically 128k if no `-b` flag specified).

This patch adds the ability to select from common block sizes
which for example can aid in improving compression ratio.

  - drop spurious boolean-based setting in .mk
  - split into multi-line
  - qstrip variable expansion
