xen/gzip: Remove custom memory allocator

All the other decompression routines use xmalloc_bytes(), thus there is no
reason for gzip to be handling its own allocation of memory. In fact, there is
a bug somewhere in the allocator as decompression started to break when adding
additional allocations. Instead of troubleshooting the allocator, replace it
with xmalloc_bytes().
