At that point, we have exact decompressor size, so we don't need to guess
that size in mkpiggy.c
We use 8 pages less in final init_size with this patch.

Hi Al,
it seems that efivarfs only supports readv(), but when it comes to
writev(), I am getting an error. Is there any reason to not support
vectored write on this filesystem? Especially with the uint32 header
for each file, I think it would make perfect sense to support it.
