extended attribute (XATTRs) support.
* Fix XATTR error message when an unrecognised prefix is
found
* Fix incorrect free of pointer when an unrecognised XATTR
prefix is found.

* Extended attribute handling improved in Unsquashfs
* Other major improvements
* Unsquashfs can now output Pseudo files to standard out.
* Mksquashfs can now input Pseudo files from standard in.
* Squashfs filesystems can now be converted (different
block size compression etc) without unpacking to an
intermediate filesystem or mounting, by piping the output of
Unsquashfs to Mksquashfs.
* Pseudo files are now supported by Sqfstar.
* "Non-anchored" excludes are now supported by Unsquashfs.
