PM: hibernate: make compression threads configurable 

The number of compression/decompression threads has a direct impact on
hibernate image generation and resume latency. Using more threads can
reduce overall resume time, but on systems with fewer CPU cores it may
also introduce contention and reduce efficiency.

Performance was evaluated on an 8-core ARM system, averaged over 10 runs:

    Threads  Hibernate(s)  Resume(s)
    --------------------------------
       3         12.14       18.86
       4         12.28       17.48
       5         11.09       16.77
       6         11.08       16.44

With 5–6 threads, resume latency improves by approximately 12% compared
to the default 3-thread configuration, with negligible impact on
hibernate time.

Introduce a new kernel parameter `hibernate_compression_threads=` that
allows users and integrators to tune the number of
compression/decompression threads at boot. This provides a way to
balance performance and CPU utilization across a wide range of hardware
without recompiling the kernel.
