Scripts: Fix exit status of xzdiff/xzcmp.
This is a minor fix since this affects only the situation when the files differ and the exit status is something else than 0. In such case there could be SIGPIPE from a decompression tool and that would result in exit status of 2 from xzdiff/xzcmp while the correct behavior would be to return 1 or whatever else diff or cmp may have returned. This commit omits the -q option from xz/gzip/bzip2/lzop arguments. I'm not sure why the -q was used in the first place, perhaps it hides warnings in some situation that I cannot see at the moment. Hopefully the removal won't introduce a new bug. With gzip the -q option was harmful because it made gzip return 2 instead of >= 128 with SIGPIPE. Ignoring exit status 2 (warning from gzip) isn't practical because bzip2 uses exit status 2 to indicate corrupt input file. It's better if SIGPIPE results in exit status >= 128. With bzip2 the removal of -q seems to be good because with -q it prints nothing if input is corrupt. The other tools aren't silent in this situation even with -q. On the other hand, if zstd support is added, it will need -q since otherwise it's noisy in normal situations. Thanks to Étienne Mollier and Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.
