Compression and fixes

The script can now optionally compress the output file using xz or leave it uncompressed.

Direct script download

zabbix-mysql-dump (v0.8.2)

New options

-x
    Compress using xz instead of gz
    PLEASE NOTE:
    xz compression will take much longer and consume more CPU time
    but the resulting backup will be about half the size of the same
    sql file compressed using gz. Your mileage may vary.

-0
    Do not compress the sql dump
