Copy compressed kernel with miniroot inside to "netbsd" rather than

"netbsd.gz".  This speeds the boot by a small but perceptable amount.

The time between when the bootblocks print "no such file or directory"
for netbsd and when they show signs of actually having found netbsd.gz
is long enough to be noticeable, and looks bad..

# We copy compressed kernel to "netbsd" rather than "netbsd.gz" for two reasons
# 1) shaves two seconds off the boot as the bootblocks look for netbsd first.
# 2) avoids possible moment of confusion when bootblocks
# print "no such file or directory" error before moving on to netbsd.gz
