A directory listing starts with a header that specifies a reference
inode number. Each entry then specifies a difference from that
reference value.
While the difference is _signed_, the reference value is _unsigned_.
This is handled correctly in the code, but was pointent out wrongly
in the documentation.

This is to allow git to recognize that format.txt "moves" to format.adoc
in the next commit (with -M20, at least), which should allow easier
comparison for what has changed (and more importantly, what hasn't) in
converting to asciidoc. For instance, doing the diff with the following
options:
```
-M20 --ignore-all-space --word-diff
```

The squashfs readdir() implementation in the Linux kernel returns
non-existing "." and ".." entries for offsets 0 and 1, and after
that reads from disk. For convenience, it was decided to store an
off-by-3 value on disk instead of doing complex primary school math
to adjust for this. This didn't show up until now, because the kernel
implementation trusts the value from the directory header more than
the actual size in the inode and happily reads 3 more than the inode
would allow it to. This only showed up with 7-zip which subtracts 3
from the size and expects the result to be exact and bails if the
directory headers suggest otherwise.
And yes, I did consider making a "Holy Hand Granade of Antioch"
reference, but consciously decided not to.

A common use case for mksquashfs is to simply pack a directory and set
a magic option to force all user/group IDs to root.
This commit adds similar options to gensquashfs to maek it better
suited as a direct replacement for packing an input directory.

Tests with the Debian image (which is generated with squashfs-tools,
so should be interpreted as ground truth) have showed that the count
is not stored off-by-one. The code was already doing the right thing,
but the documentation was wrong.

In libtar, set a special flag if the header is actually a hard link.
In tar2sqfs, create a hard link node and skip the rest for hard links.
Also refues to set the root attributes from a hard link, it may refere
to a node that we have missed earlier, there is nothing else that we
can do here.
In fstree_from_file, add a "link" command for adding hard links.

Parallel unpacking didn't really improve the speed that much. Actually
sorting the files for optimized unpack order improved speed much more
than the parallel unpacker.
Furthermore, the fork based parallel unpacker was actually pretty messy
to begin with.

reproducible-builds.org suggests the use of an environment variable
as a source for time stamps:
https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/
This commit adds support for setting the default mtime from the variable,
if it is set and only defaulting to 0 if not. The timestamp given by the
command line switch takes precedence.
