auto-compression-mode doesn't work on backups of .bz2 files

Subject: auto-compression-mode doesn't work on backups of .bz2 files

If I have auto-compression-mode turned on and edit file.txt.gz~ or
file.txt.gz.~23~ then the files are decompressed on the fly before
being shown to me.  This is good.

However, if instead I edit file.txt.bz2~ or file.txt.bz2.~23~ then the
files aren't decompressed on the fly.

This patch fixes the problem:

I notice also that backups of .tgz and .tbz files aren't handled, but
that's less of a problem because tar-mode fails to make backups when I
edit tar archives, so I've never seen a .tgz~ or .tbz~ file.  tar-mode
uses tar-mode-write-file to save modified tar buffers, which in turn
uses write-region, which doesn't make backups.  Perhaps this should be
fixed as well.
