* use "AR_GNU" as the format name instead of AR_SVR4 (it's what everyone is going to call it anyway)
* Simplify numeric parsing to unsigned (none of the numeric values should ever be negative); don't run off end of numeric fields.
* Finish parsing the common header fields before the next I/O request (which might dump the contents)
* Be smarter about format guessing and trimming filenames.
* Most of the magic values are only used in one place, so just inline them.
* Many more comments.
* Be smarter about handling damaged entries; return something reasonable.
* Call it a "filename table" instead of a "string table"
* Update tests.
Enable selection of 'ar', 'arbsd', and 'argnu' formats by name
(this allows bsdtar to create ar format archives).
The 'ar' writer still needs some work; it should reject
entries that aren't regular files and should probably also
strip leading paths from filenames.
for directories. bsdtar used to add this, but that recently got
lost somehow. So now I'm adding it back in libarchive.
The only odd part of doing this in libarchive: Adding a directory to
a tar archive and then reading it back again can yield a different name.
Add a test case to exercise some boundary conditions with
tar filenames and ensure that trailing slashes are added to
dir names only as necessary.
Thanks to: Oliver Lehmann for bringing this regression to my attention.

error which occurred was in the writer. This avoids error messages
of "Empty error message" when extracting truncated archives.

in libarchive 3.0 (in FreeBSD 8.0?) but there's no reason for anyone to
use it instead of archive_read_data.

skip over the end-of-entry padding instead of reading and discarding
it.
Considering that tar files normally have a block size of 10kB, this
isn't likely to avoid reading any data, but at least it makes the code
simpler and clearer.
discards it, for use when the compression layer code doesn't know how to
skip data (e.g., everything other than the "none" compressor). This makes
format level code simpler because that code can now assume that the
compression layer always knows how to skip and will always skip exactly
the requested number of bytes.

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.
* Only try to remove the existing item if we're not restoring a directory.
* If unlink fails, try rmdir next.
This should fix the broken --unlink option in bsdtar.
Thanks again to: Kris Kennaway, for beating up bsdtar on pointyhat.
* The ACL formatter was mis-formatting entries which had a
user/group ID but no name. Make the parser tolerant of
these, so that old archives can be correctly restored;
fix the formatter to generate correct entries.
* Fix overwrite detection by introducing a new "FAILED" return
code that indicates the current entry cannot be continued
but the archive as a whole is still sound.
* Header cleanup: Remove some unused headers, add some that
are required with new Linux systems.
These tests verify that archive_entry objects can store and return
ACL data and that pax format archives can read and write ACL
information. These do not (yet) test that ACL data is read or
written to disk correctly. (And hence would not have caught the
recent snafu about ACL read-from-disk being turned off.)
ACL data from the archive entry. This doesn't impact
archive_read_extract or archive_write_disk since they only
check for != ARCHIVE_OK when calling this function. (Though
they should be more careful.)
* 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.

Fallout from changing the skip API to use off_t instead of size_t: Print
the skip length using %jd and cast to (intmax_t) instead of %d / (int),
and if ARCHIVE_API_VERSION >= 2, allow the client skipper to be called
for requests longer than SSIZE_MAX. [2]

extra verbage get copied from somewhere.
Also, update the copyright dates to 2007 for all of the files.
Prompted by: several questions about what those extra words really mean
wrap this within #if/#else/#endif so that it will only take effect once
ARCHIVE_API_VERSION is increased (which should happen on HEAD some time
between now and when RELENG_7 is branched).
returning the length skipped in a ssize_t to using off_t for both. This
does not break any A[BP]Is, since compression_skip is entirely internal
to libarchive.
If a skip request is > SSIZE_MAX, don't pass it down to the client layer
skip function, since those still uses size_t / ssize_t. Instead, just
read the data and throw it away.
With this commit, libarchive/bsdtar should now successfully skip archive
entries of >2GB on 32-bit systems, but does so slower than necessary.
The performance will improve with a future A[BP]I breaking commit which
makes client layer skip functions use off_t.
