e2fsprogs has removed compression support since v1.43 and there is no field
'X' (no compress) for lxattr now. So, just remove the explanation.

Instead, "property get" can be used to check whether no compress flag is
set.

Hm right, I hoped that we could export the NOCOMP flag through
lsattr/chattr, but this relied on a compile-time compression support of
e2fsprogs.

1st patch requires btrfs/048's output to be modified.
If the patch is Ok, I will update the xfstest.

Thanks,
Tomohiro
