Subject: [PATCH] Implement new 'uncompressed' image method

This allows the FS to just live, uncompressed, in cache.

This is generally a bad idea, however:

- In a hypothetically super-tuned diskless image, the lack of double-cache can offset the lack of compression
- The image will have supreme read performance
- It will have the most deterministic memory behavior
