doesn't need to compensate for this situation.
While here, fix a minor longstanding bug that empty tar archives
(which begin with at least 512 zero bytes) never properly reported
their format. In particular, this fixes the output of:
bsdtar tvvf /dev/zero
And, of course, a new test to verify that libarchive correctly
recognizes the format of such files.
* 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.
