An attempt to write an archiver using zig
Windows isn't a native target for redis, but we should still be able to cross-compile from windows to other platforms.
Get it working for redis cross-compilation as basic test-case.
This is currently done it quite an ad-hoc fashion. Mainly to do what is needed to get the tests parsing. So this needs to be properly handled and documents.
This is a tricky one, because ZLD currently requires a file handle + offset. One option is to use this API and then just give it the archive file with...

Some of the things we do at comptime in the unit tests are really slow - so making them runtime should hopefully speed up the test.
It's currently disabled because it crashes on a few of the examples we have.
POC at [ranlib](https://github.com/moosichu/zar/tree/ranlib) branch for elf files (gnu format only) right now. It uses object parsing code from zld directly with minimal changes to compile without unneeded files, but maintains...
