Translate getdate.y into C for portability. Make the get_date()
function easier to test as well:
* Have it accept a time_t "now" to use as a reference so that test
code can verify relative time specifications against known starting
points.
* Set up default date after parsing the string so that we
can use the specified timezone (if any) instead of the local
default. Otherwise, local DST makes it almost impossible to
reliably test time specifications such as "sunday UTC"
This replaces the getopt()/getopt_long() wrapper, the old-style
argument rewriter and the associated configuration glue with a more
straightforward custom command parser. In particular, this ensures
that bsdtar will have consistent option parsing on every platform,
regardless of whether the platform supports getopt_long().

In addition to a number of bug fixes and minor changes:
* --numeric-owner (ignore user/group names on create and extract)
* -S (sparsify files on extraction)
* -s (regex filename substitutions)
* Use new libarchive 'linkify' to get correct hardlink handling for
both old and new cpio formats
* Rework 'copy' test to be insensitive to readdir() filename ordering
Most of the credit for this work goes to Joerg Sonnenberger, who
has been duplicating features from NetBSD's 'pax' program.
handling to bsdtar. When writing archives (including copying via the
@archive directive) a line is output to stderr indicating what is being
done (adding or copying), the path, and how far through the file we are;
extracting currently does not report progress within each file, but
this is likely to happen eventually.
Discussed with: kientzle

* prototypes for optarg/optind on platforms that don't already have them
* Disambiguate version number macros
* Remove unnecessary PACKAGE_NAME macro
* Hook for forthcoming bsdtar test suite
* Sync version number up with the portable distribution
* 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.
MFC after: 15 days
* 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.

minor corrections so the code works better with the build system being
used for non-FreeBSD builds.

Wollman: when stripping the leading '/' from the path "/", don't produce
an entry with an empty name; produce "." instead.
Also, reduce the WARNS level to 5 since different build environments
end up using different Yacc skeletons. The BSD one does not
predeclare yyparse, the FSF one does, so it's not really possible to
consistently enforce both -Wmissing-prototypes and -Wredundant-decls.

I'm here, change the man page to document "tar" rather than "bsdtar,"
update some comments about -l compatibility and fix a few grammar nits.
