* Implement --use-compress-program using new libarchive feature.
* Minor portability improvement by adjusting casts used to
print out uids, gids, and device numbers.
Thanks to: Joerg Sonnenberger for the --use-compress-program implementation.

failed path is one which was specified on the command line.
This is a compromise between the situation prior to revision 1.57
(where a race between tar(1) and rm(1) could cause tar(1) to
spuriously report an error) and the situation after revision 1.57
(where "tar -c /no/such/path" prints a warning but returns with
an exit code of zero).

into separate append_archive and append_archive_filename functions; the first
takes a "struct archive *" as input, while the second takes a filename, opens
the archive, and calls the first.
There should be no changes in behaviour as a result of this commit; it simply
reorganizes code to make more sense. At some point in the future it may be
possible to share code between append_archive and read_archive, but not yet.

affecting the return value from bsdtar), since (a) it usually occurs
due to a perfectly innocent (and unavoidable) race condition where a
user deletes a file in the window between bsdtar reading a directory
and attempting to read the file; and (b) aside from printing a warning
message, bsdtar behaves exactly as if the file had been deleted prior
to bsdtar reading its parent directory.

* New test scripts exercise some basic functionality
* Most header inclusions are now protected (portability)
* read.c now relies on security checks in libarchive instead
of trying to do its own (optimization)
* -p now enabled by default for root, add --no-same-permissions
to disable it
* Comments, minor style fixes.

Libarchive recently changed to correctly return the amount
of data actually consumed in this case, which revealed this
bug in bsdtar.

* If archive is "empty", then append to it with pax restricted
* If user specified a format, use that if it's compatible with
the existing format.

minor corrections so the code works better with the build system being
used for non-FreeBSD builds.
Many thanks to: Jaakko Heinonen, who proposed a mechanism for extended
attribute support and implemented both the machine-independent portion
and the Linux-specific portion.
when list the archive contents, then try to extract selected files
(file selection always works against unedited pathnames). With this change,
-t always shows the pathnames as they appear in the archive.

This causes attempts to update a non-existent file to report
an actual error instead of triggering an assertion failure.

Note: This does not entirely fix bin/87911. I need to decide on
the "correct" response when someone tries to update a non-existent
archive file.

throw out the whole thing and stop tracking links entirely. That will
break all remaining hardlinks, but should free up enough memory to
let everything finish.
* Add --null option (sort #defines here)
* Add process_lines function to util.c that reads newline-terminated
or null-terminated lines (with self-sizing buffers, etc) and iteratively
invokes a provided function. Use this to dramatically simplify:
-T handling for -c, --exclude-from-file, and --include-from-file.
* Add -T handling to -x (via include_from_file)
Hopefully, this will fix the openoffice port and a couple of
others that rely on -T and --null.
Instead, display a warning, clean up, and let main() return the error.
In particular, this means that chdir() problems won't leave broken
archives, though they will prompt an error exit value.
This requires some non-trivial surgery to the options parsing.
While here, let people who only have getopt() access long options
through the -W longopt=value convention.
