archive: pass archiver struct to write_archive callback
The current archivers are very static; when you are in the
write_tar_archive function, you know you are writing a tar.
However, to facilitate runtime-configurable archivers
that will share a common write function we need to tell the
function which archiver was used.
As a convenience, we also provide an opaque data pointer in
the archiver struct so that individual archivers can put
something useful there when they register themselves.
Technically they could just use the "name" field to look in
an internal map of names to data, but this is much simpler.
