[Unreleased]

Breaking: Debkit.Tar entries are now Debkit.Tar.Entry structs instead of tuples. The same struct flows through read/1 and write/1, so an archive round-trips through it.
- Build entries with the new Debkit.Tar.file/3 and Debkit.Tar.dir/2 constructors (replacing the {name, contents} / {name, contents, mode} and {:dir, ...} tuple forms).
- Debkit.Tar.read/1 now returns Debkit.Tar.Entry structs and surfaces directory entries (with mode and type) in addition to files; symlinks and device nodes are still skipped.

Directory entries (ustar typeflag 5) for .deb data.tar archives, via Debkit.Tar.dir/2. Names are stored verbatim (keep the trailing /). (#1)

Initial release. Codecs for the four nested formats inside a Debian .deb:
- Debkit.Ar — read and write ar containers (deterministic headers, no symbol table).
- Debkit.Tar — read and write tar archives (deterministic ustar, names stored verbatim including a leading ./).
- Debkit.compress/2 and Debkit.decompress/2 for :gzip, :xz, :zstd.
!-raising variants and an Debkit.Error exception.
