ArchiveReader deprecation

The lang.archive.ArchiveClassLoader has been changed to no longer use the lang.archive.ArchiveReader class but instead use the xar stream wrapper defined in lang.base.php. This:

• Improves performance because the core archive (xp-rt-X.X.X.xar) is only opened once (it was opened twice before, once for bootstrapping, once for loading other skeleton classes)
• Gets rid of the dependency on the ArchiveReader class

Because there is no depencency on it anymore, the ArchiveReader class was deprecated.

If you have been using this class you will have to change your sourcecode as follows:

<?php 
  // Old
  $a= new ArchiveReader('filename.xar');
 
  // New
  $a= new Archive(new File('filename.xar'));
?>
