Zip write support for libarchive.

The initial implementation was developed by Anselm Strauss as part of Google Summer of Code 2008, then completed by Joerg Sonnenberger.

Support for writing the 'newc' cpio format, plus a minimal test harness

for the cpio formats. Thanks to: Rudolf Marek Approved by: re@

Overhaul of 'ar' support:

2007-04-14T22:34:10Z

* 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.

Fix the copyright notice; it was always intended to be

2007-01-09T08:05:56Z

a vanilla 2-clause BSD license, but somehow some confusing 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

Portability and style fixes:

* Actually use the HAVE_

_H macros to conditionally include system headers. They've been defined for a long time, but only used in a few places. Now they're used pretty consistently throughout. * Fill in a lot of missing casts for conversions from void*. Although Standard C doesn't require this, some people have been trying to use C++ compilers with this code, and they do require it. Bit-for-bit, the compiled object files are identical, except for one assert() whose line number changed, so I'm pretty confident I didn't break anything. ;-)

Allow "posix" as a synonym for "pax". (The gtar folks chose "posix",

2004-07-25T23:10:38Z

which is really, really dumb and just going to cause confusion among people who understand that "ustar" is also a POSIX standard tar format.)

Many fixes.

Portability: Thanks to Juergen Lock, libarchive now compiles cleanly on Linux. Along the way, I cleaned up a lot of error return codes and reorganized some code to simplify conditional compilation of certain sections. Bug fixes: * pax format now actually stores filenames that are 101-154 characters long. * pax format now allows newline characters in extended attributes (this fixes a long-standing bug in ACL handling) * mtime/atime are now restored for directories * directory list is now sorted prior to fix-up to permit correct restore of non-writable dir heirarchies
