normal archive file operation (non-objectstorage) works correctly with
Cassandane and FastMail experimental branch, I haven't done more than
rudimentary testing with the dummy objectstorage.

This is still very much work in progress - but putting it on master
means that the code will be maintained and updated as other API
changes are made.

Thanks Raymond and Jean-Francois for all your work on this.  I hope it
gets more testing and use.
