Important: removed xz lib 5.6.1 from all compressed files,
now we are using release 5.4.0 because it is stable

C code and executable to do an archive of multiples files
or folders a la tar, with the advantage of full compatibility with
future versions
This means that if in the future someone improve the code older
files will still be able to be extracted without problems,
it looks like an improvement over tar.

Its an application to compress and extract files in the .val format, when
functional it can be used to replace tar files, the advantage is that it
will handle any previous versions without problems, it is almost as fast as tar,
for the moment it can generate .val files in gzip, bzip2, bzip3, lz5,
brotli2, lzop2, Zstandard, xz and LZMA, but more compression methods will
be added like our DLL version of this console application, a lot need
to be done yet
