Message:

Fix a NULL pointer access when boot components are uncompressed

When boot components are not compressed, their names do not have any
file extension. When checking whether a component is a GZIP file, code
in payload.c calls function isgzip(s) with `s' being a component name.
The name is passed to ext() which returns NULL if no extension is
present. The result is directly passed by isgzip() to str_cmp() and
would cause a NULL pointer access in the latter function.

Fix this by updating function isgzip() to check a result from the ext()
call. For consistency, update similarly function basename() in the same
file.
