Embedded scripts require a shell to be present in the BusyBox
binary. Allow either ash or hush to be used for this purpose.
If both are enabled ash takes precedence.
The size of the binary is unchanged in the default configuration:
both ash and hush are present but support for embedded scripts
isn't compiled into hush.

Similar code to unpack embedded data is used to decompress usage
messages, embedded scripts and the config file (in the non-default
bbconfig applet).
Moving this code to a common function reduces the size of the default
build and hides more of the internals of libarchive.

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 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.

* inflate.c (huft_build): Fix regression that caused gzip to
refuse to uncompress null input (all zero length codes). Problem
