49a09fde05 Disable xattrs in all mksquashfs calls
--chroot-squashfs-compression-options does not exist in live-build
bookworm (1:20230502). The correct mechanism is the MKSQUASHFS_OPTIONS
environment variable read by binary_rootfs.

Export MKSQUASHFS_OPTIONS="-no-xattrs" before lb build so live-build's
binary_rootfs picks it up, and add -no-xattrs explicitly to every
direct mksquashfs call in build.sh (fast-path repack and the dormant
split-layers function). Remove the invalid lb config option.

f3962422c8 Fix lb config option name for squashfs compression options
--chroot-squashfs-options is not a valid lb_config option; the correct
name is --chroot-squashfs-compression-options. Without this fix lb config
aborts immediately, so the -no-xattrs flag (which prevents the
"unable to read xattr id index table" boot failure) was never applied.

ee36e3c711 Strip xattrs from squashfs to fix boot failure
Kernel squashfs driver fails with "unable to read xattr id index table"
when the squashfs contains POSIX ACL xattrs (system.posix_acl_*) written
by mksquashfs as unrecognised entries. This caused every built ISO to
drop to an initramfs shell at boot.

Add -no-xattrs to mksquashfs options so xattrs are stripped at build
time. xattrs are not needed in a live read-only rootfs.
