apt-utils: xz support is gone.

Bug description:
Stable release update justification:
[Impact] apt-ftparchive fails to produce .xz compressed files with
sufficiently large data sets. This prevents migration of the Ubuntu archive to
.xz.
[Test Case] Grab trusty/main/amd64 with debmirror, construct a suitable file
list, and ask apt-ftparchive to generate files for this with Packages::Compress
set to include xz. We can easily test this on the Launchpad "dogfood" instance
where we do QA of the archive publisher.
[Regression Potential] Confined to lzma/xz compression, which I think is
basically just apt-ftparchive, but we should make sure that other compression
methods still work there.
Original report follows:
Imported from Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/751688:
Package: apt-utils
Version: 0.9.15.5
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Tested with 1.0.4 and reinstalled working 0.9.15.5
Packages::Compress seems to not work anymore with xz compression.
Only . (uncompressed), gzip and bzip2 seems to work, xz now return errors
(see at the bottom).
Same error with Sources::Compress
