Add options to `tar` to tell it to save and restore extended attributes:
* `--xattr`: enable extended attributes support
* `--xattrs-include=*.*`: tell `tar` to include every extended attribute
since by default `tar` only stores attributes in the `user.*` namespace
This fixes the `pack` and `unpack` actions when dealing with tools like
`ping` which on modern distributions have been switched to use file
capabilities to do privileged operations without being setuid, as they are
based on extended attributes.
This relies on `tar` being GNU Tar >= 1.27, released in 2013 and shipped since
Debian Jessie.

Most todo for 1.0 apart from renaming to debos are done. The format
seems pretty ok and ends up being pleasant enough to use, without any
unpleasantness that i'd like to change around in the short term. So good
enough for v1.

Passing the rootdir as the last argument can be cumbersome especially
when using commands rather then scripts. Instead set the ROOTDIR
environment variable for usage in scripts/commands
