The modules.tar.gz archive is sometimes of no value and it can take
a noticeable time to build if many modules were enabled in the kernel
configuration. The extraneous file also contributes to deploy/ clutter
and is a waste of disk space.
Allow it to be suppressed by setting KERNEL_DEPLOY_MODULE_TARBALL=0.
