Andy McFadden f37b387cc6 Fix handling of entries with missing threads
When GSHK adds files to an archive, it doesn't create threads for
zero-length data and resource forks.  NufxLib had a workaround
for this, but it wasn't handling all possible cases.  We now
fully handle "Miranda threads" (if you cannot afford a thread,
one will be provided for you).

This broke test-basic, because a callback gets called one extra
time now due to the additional thread.  It also broke test-twirl,
which uses "mask dataless" and is sensitive to the order in which
threads appear.  (test-twirl actually works just fine, but the
CRC check is too simple-minded, and is arguably incorrect.)

Since this can apparently break things, I'm making this a minor
version bump, to 3.1.0-a1.

I also tweaked the NuLib2 file listing to test for the extended
file storage type, rather than simply scanning for data threads.
Forked files are now listed as such, even when they're missing
the actual resource fork data thread.

NuLib2

NuLib2 is a command-line file archiver for Apple II archives. It can operate on ShrinkIt and Binary II files (.shk, .sdk, .bxy, .bse, .bny, .bqy).

NufxLib is a library of code that supports ShrinkIt archives. It's used by NuLib2 and CiderPress.

A pre-built NuLib2 binary is available for x86 Windows. For Linux and Mac OS X systems, you can download the source code and build it.

More information, including full documentation for NuLib2 and NufxLib, can be found on http://www.nulib.com/.
