bug#51116: 28.0.60; tty-run-terminal-initialization unnecessarily decompresses .el.gz file

[Sebastian Arlund Nørgaard]

When compressed elisp files are installed, tty-run-terminal-initialization will 
decompress and interpret an el.gz file rather than use the available compiled 
.elc file.

The problem is this bit of code (line 2288-2293 in lisp/faces.el):

        (tty-find-type #'(lambda (type)
                           (let ((file (locate-library (concat term-file-prefix 
type))))
                             (and file
                                  (or (assoc file load-history)
                                      (load (file-name-sans-extension file)
                                            t t)))))

In my case, the locate-library call will resolve to (locate-library 
"term/xterm"), which will return

/path/to/install/lisp/term/xterm.el.gz

A bit further down, the call to file-name-sans-extension will strip the 
extension to xterm.el. But there is only xterm.el.gz and xterm.elc in the path, 
so load will resolve to the xterm.el.gz, rather than the .elc file. I can 
reproduce this as follows:

- emacs -nw -Q
- switch to *Messages* buffer
- Buffer contains "uncompressing xterm.el.gz...done"

Ideally the output of load-library should be stripped completely of extensions, 
so load will resolve to xterm.elc.

(xterm is the tty type for my system, but this would apply just as well for 
other tty types.)
