To assist in the deployment of shell scripts it may be convenient
to embed them in the BusyBox binary.
'Embed scripts in the binary' takes any files in the directory
'embed', concatenates them with null separators, compresses them
and embeds them in the binary.
When scripts are embedded in the binary, scripts can be run as
'busybox SCRIPT [ARGS]' or by usual (sym)link mechanism.
embed/nologin is provided as an example.

This fragment did not work right:
temp = bb_get_chunk_from_file(fp, &len);
if (temp) {
/* len > 0 here, it's ok to do temp[len-1] */
char c = temp[len-1];
With "int len" _sign-extending_, temp[len-1] can refer to a wrong location
if len > 0x7fffffff.

This mostly reverts commit bc9bbeb2b8
"libarchive: do not extract unsafe symlinks unless $EXTRACT_UNSAFE_SYMLINKS=1"
Users report that it is somewhat too restrictive. See
https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=8411
In particular, this interferes with unpacking of busybox-based
filesystems with links like "sbin/applet" -> "../bin/busybox".
The change is made smaller by deleting ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_QUIET flag -
it is unused since 2010, and removing conditionals on it
allows commonalizing some error message codes.

FEATURE_GETOPT_LONG made dependent on LONG_OPTS.
The folloving options are removed, now LONG_OPTS enables long options
for affected applets:
FEATURE_ENV_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_EXPAND_LONG_OPTIONS
FEATURE_UNEXPAND_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_MKDIR_LONG_OPTIONS
FEATURE_MV_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_RMDIR_LONG_OPTIONS
FEATURE_ADDGROUP_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_ADDUSER_LONG_OPTIONS
FEATURE_HWCLOCK_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_NSENTER_LONG_OPTS
FEATURE_CHCON_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_RUNCON_LONG_OPTIONS
They either had a small number of long options, or their long options are
essential.
Example: upstream addgroup and adduser have ONLY longopts,
we should probably go further and get rid
of non-standard short options.
To this end, make addgroup and adduser "select LONG_OPTS".
We had this breakage caused by us even in our own package!
#if ENABLE_LONG_OPTS || !ENABLE_ADDGROUP
/* We try to use --gid, not -g, because "standard" addgroup
* has no short option -g, it has only long --gid.
*/
argv[1] = (char*)"--gid";
#else
/* Breaks if system in fact does NOT use busybox addgroup */
argv[1] = (char*)"-g";
#endif
xargs: its lone longopt no longer depends on DESKTOP, only on LONG_OPTS.
hwclock TODO: get rid of incompatible -t, -l aliases to --systz, --localtime
Shorten help texts by omitting long option when short opt alternative exists.
Reduction of size comes from the fact that store of an immediate
(an address of longopts) to a fixed address (global variable)
is a longer insn than pushing that immediate or passing it in a register.
This effect is CPU-agnostic.

The '%m' conversion specifier prints an error message based on the
current value of 'errno'. It is available in the GNU C library,
Cygwin (since 2012), uClibc and musl.
It is not available in various BSDs, BSD-derived systems (MacOS,
Android) or Microsoft Windows.
Use a symbol defined in platform.h to control how error messages
can be formatted to display the 'errno' message. On platforms that
support it use '%m'; on other platforms use '%s' and strerror().
On platforms that have '%m' there is essentially no change in the
size of the binary. Otherwise:

Defining a function alias with __attribute__ ((alias("evaltree"),__noreturn__))
is not that usual, and clang had a bug which made it misunderstand
this construct.
Switch to:
ALWAYS_INLINE NORETURN evaltreenr() { evaltree(); unreachable(); }
Older gcc's do not know unreachable(), on them we pay the price of having
a few extra calls to abort():
