corrections to the Windows support to reconcile differences
between Visual Studio and Cygwin. Includes parts of
revisions 757, 774, 787, 815, 817, 819, 820, 844, and 886.
Of particular note, r886 overhauled the UTF-8/Unicode conversions to
work correctly regardless of whether the local system uses 16-bit
or 32-bit wchar_t. (I assume that systems with 16-bit wchar_t
use UTF-16 and those with 32-bit wchar_t use UCS-4.) This revision
also added a preference for wcrtomb() (which is thread-safe) on
platforms that support it.
exercises and verifies the libarchive APIs:
* Improved error reporting; hexdumps are now provided for
many file/memory content differences.
* Overall status more clearly counts "tests" and "assertions"
* Reference files can now be stored on disk instead of having
to be compiled into the test program itself. A couple of
tests have been converted to this more natural structure.
* Several memory leaks corrected so that leaks within libarchive
itself can be more easily detected and diagnosed.
* New test: GNU tar compatibility
* New test: Zip compatibility
* New test: Zero-byte writes to a compressed archive entry
* New test: archive_entry_strmode() format verification
* New test: mtree reader
* New test: write/read of large (2G - 1TB) entries to tar archives
(thanks to recent performance work, this test only requires a few seconds)
* New test: detailed format verification of cpio odc and newc writers
* Many minor additions/improvements to existing tests as well.
owner restore is not requested. If you ask
for permissions to be restored but not owner,
you will now get no error if suid/sgid bits
cannot be set. (It's a security hole to restore
suid/sgid bits if the owner/group aren't restored.)
This fixes an obscure problem where a simple
"tar -xf" with no other options will sometimes
fail gratuitously because of suid/sgid bits.
This is causing occasional problems for people
using bsdtar as a drop-in replacement for
"that other tar program." ;-)
Note: If you do ask for owner restore, then suid/sgid
restore failures still issue an error. This
only suppresses the error in the case where an
suid/sgid bit restore fails because of an owner
mismatch and owner restore was not requested.

ARCHIVE_VERSION_STAMP to selectively disable tests that don't
apply to that version; new "skipping()" function reports skipped
tests; modify final summary to report component test failures and
skips.
Note: I don't currently intend to MFC the test suite itself;
anyone interested should just checkout and use this version
of the test suite, which should work for any library version.

* "compression_program" support uses an external program
* Portability: no longer uses "struct stat" as a primary
data interchange structure internally
* Part of the above: refactor archive_entry to separate
out copy_stat() and stat() functions
* More complete tests for archive_entry
* Finish archive_entry_clone()
* Isolate major()/minor()/makedev() in archive_entry; remove
these from everywhere else.
* Bug fix: properly handle decompression look-ahead at end-of-data
* Bug fixes to 'ar' support
* Fix memory leak in ZIP reader
* Portability: better timegm() emulation in iso9660 reader
* New write_disk flags to suppress auto dir creation and not
overwrite newer files (for future cpio front-end)
* Simplify trailing-'/' fixup when writing tar and pax
* Test enhancements: fix various compiler warnings, improve
portability, add lots of new tests.
* Documentation: document new functions, first draft of
libarchive_internals.3

Don't change permissions on an existing dir unless _EXTRACT_PERM
is requested.
In particular, bsdtar -x should not edit mode of existing dirs
now; bsdtar -xp will.
* libarchive_test program exercises many of the core features
* Refactored old "read_extract" into new "archive_write_disk", which
uses archive_write methods to put entries onto disk. In particular,
you can now use archive_write_disk to create objects on disk
without having an archive available.
* Pushed some security checks from bsdtar down into libarchive, where
they can be better optimized.
* Rearchitected the logic for creating objects on disk to reduce
the number of system calls. Several common cases now use a
minimum number of system calls.
* Virtualized some internal interfaces to provide a clearer separation
of read and write handling and make it simpler to override key
methods.
* New "empty" format reader.
* Corrected return types (this ABI breakage required the "2.0" version bump)
* Many bug fixes.
