[PATCH] loadpin: Prevent SECURITY_LOADPIN_ENFORCE=y without module decompression

If modules are built compressed, and LoadPin is enforcing by default, we
must have in-kernel module decompression enabled (MODULE_DECOMPRESS).
Modules will fail to load without decompression built into the kernel
because they'll be blocked by LoadPin. Add a depends on clause to
prevent this combination.

If selected, LoadPin will enforce pinning at boot. If not
selected, it can be enabled at boot with the kernel parameter
