Add Bzip2 support to ZipBlockReader/ZipBlockWriter

Reported by: kai Assigned to: DRK
Priority: normal Milestone: 2.0
Component: Tango Version: 0.99.8 Sean

Description

Support for Bzip2 compression is easy to add, because the BzipStream? classes are already there. The attached patch adds this support.
Unfortunately, this is a user visible change: even if you don't use this new feature, you have to link against libbz2. (Could this be solved with a pragma?)

pragma can help with this, if the rather abysmal implementation is fixed.

Deferred until 2.0. Hopefully by then the situation with external libraries will be better.
