[OE-core] [PATCH v2] pixz: Add 1.0.6

xz gives better compression results than bzip/gz but is often slower.
Using parallel compression mitigates this somewhat and is particularly
useful for the SDK.

Whilst xz does have some parallel support, pixz appears to perform better 
and supports parallel decompression as well as a simpler command line.
