+ == ZRAM support for ARM images

+ 

+ Previous releases of Fedora for ARM (`Aarch64`) systems enabled a small amount of swap space by default.

+ This was generally a good thing, however in some cases using swap on ARM can cause problems such as heavy wear on SD cards due to excess use of wear leveling.

+ Fedora 29 enables ZRAM in order to mitigate this and enable more memory on ARM single-board computers (SBCs) by compressing a part of the RAM and using it as a swap space.

+ This provides better performance and reliability on such devices, which in turn provides better user experience.

+ ZRAM is enabled on all ARM images by default.

Fixes #202 and also adds package tags to another issue because I'm a dum dum
