Running a shell command for each file to be archived has a lot of overhead and may not offer as much error checking as you want, or the exact semantics that you want. So, offer the option to call a loadable module for each file to be archived, rather than running a shell command. Also, add a 'basic_archive' contrib module as an example implementation that archives to a local directory. Nathan Bossart, with a little bit of kibitzing by me.

Allow archiving via loadable modules.

Running a shell command for each file to be archived has a lot of
overhead and may not offer as much error checking as you want, or the
exact semantics that you want. So, offer the option to call a loadable
module for each file to be archived, rather than running a shell command.

Also, add a 'basic_archive' contrib module as an example implementation
that archives to a local directory.
