They're cut down versions, so it doesn't make a lot of sense for them
to be in the main package - I guess you'd really want them as
PACKAGECONFIG, but upstream builds them as completely separate things.

I should probably pull them out to a local bbappend as they're likely
not of general use - my use case is only for zstd-decompress where I
want the smallest thing I can to go inside an initramfs which then
lives on a 3M boot partition.
