Ar cannot handle UIDs with more than 6 digits, and storing the mtime,
uid, gid and mode provides little to negative value anyhow for ar's
uses. Turn on deterministic (-D) mode by default; it can be disabled by
the user with -U.

This is required in order for us to support deterministic mode by
default. If multiple -D or -U options are specified on the command
line, the final one takes precedence. GNU ar also uses -U for this.
An equivalent change will be applied to ELF Tool Chain's version of ar.

Fault in the buffer prior to writing to workaround poor performance due
to interaction with kernel fs deadlock avoidance code. See the comment
prior to vn_io_fault_doio() in sys/kern/vfs_vnops.c for details of the
issue.

Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.

Set ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_SECURE_SYMLINKS and ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_SECURE_NODOTDOT
as in bsdtar to prevent extraction of archive entries whose pathnames
contain .. or whose target directory would be altered by a symlink.
Also disallow absolute pathnames.
We don't currently provide an option to disable this behaviour (as
bsdtar's -P does). It is unlikely to be a problem in practice for ar(1),
but the -P option is not currently used and available if we want to
consider it for this purpose.

This compiler flag enforces that that people either mark variables
static or use an external declarations for the variable, similar to how
-Wmissing-prototypes works for functions.
Due to the fact that Yacc/Lex generate code that cannot trivially be
changed to not warn because of this (lots of yy* variables), add a
NO_WMISSING_VARIABLE_DECLARATIONS that can be used to turn off this
specific compiler warning.

Update libarchive to 3.1.2
Some of new features:
- support for lrzip and grzip compression
- support for writing tar v7 format
- b64encode and uuencode filters
- support for __MACOSX directory in Zip archives
- support for lzop compresion (external utility)
- old yacc(1) use to magicially append stdlib.h, while new one don't
- new yacc(1) do declare yyparse by itself, fix redundant declaration of
'yyparse'
Approved by: des (mentor)
Some of new features:
- New readers: RAR, LHA/LZH, CAB reader, 7-Zip
- New writers: ISO9660, XAR
- Improvements to many formats, especially including ISO9660 and Zip
- Stackable write filters to write, e.g., tar.gz.uu in a single pass
- Exploit seekable input; new "seekable" Zip reader can exploit the Zip
Central Directory when it's available; the old "streamable" Zip reader
is still fully supported for cases where seeking is not possible.

ar(1)'s dependencies on compressor libraries -lz, -lbz2 and -llzma and
fixes building HEAD on some versions of FreeBSD[78]. Option -j and -z
is now accepted but ignored.
Compressed ar(1) archives are not useful without a ld(1) that can read
them. Also, the current ar(1) compression scheme prevents random
access of archive members and needs to be redesigned anyway.
