Dpkg::Source::Archiver: new module to work with tar archives

get_compression_from_filename() to identify the compression

catch some errors that might go unnoticed otherwise and to
error out early for some other errors.
Dpkg::IPC: New {to,from}_string options for fork_and_exec

a scalar reference, even though this is really only
necessary for to_string. to_string implies the
wait_child option.
