grub_gzfile_open only handle gzip file, while grub_zfile_open handle
compressed file in general. when module like gzio starts, it register
a structure that grub_zfile_open would use to call the decompression
routine. the binding is dynamic, the modules that use grub_zfile_open
doesn't depend on the specific decompression module.
