V0.9.0
--------
-Show childless directories whose names contain the filtering string.
-Fixed viewing or removing of files that have wildcard characters in their names
with bsdtar (by escaping some wildcard characters that come after "--include").
-Better smooth scrolling from inside the view (especially with touchpad).
-Added read-only support for AppImage bundle through 7z.
-When viewing a file in a password protected archive, ask the password again if
a nonempty, wrong password is entered.
-When viewing files, warn the user of links without targets instead of trying to
open them.
Main changes:
-Now it's possible to drag all selected items, including directories.
-Added an option for only expanding top level directories when loading archives.
-Whether the option "Fit first column into available width" is checked or not,
the first header column is expanded to fill the available width.
-Added a workaround for Qt's problem with scrolling to deep non-expanded tree
items.
-Don't show the header without content.
-Resize columns appropriately on expanding/collapsing a directory item.
-Added application/x-xz, application/x-bzip and application/zstd to the
supported extractions by using 7z.
-Show the compressed size prefixed by ≥ if the file size is missing.
-Added cmake support (in addition to qmake).
-Handle newlines and text tabs in item names as far as possible.
-Natural sorting of items by treating dot as a separator.
-Set the window title to the archive name.
-Added context menu to the archive path bar for copying path and opening
containing folder.
-Use 7z for uncompressed disk images and bsdtar for compressed ones.
-Added fallback icons for files and folders.
-Fixed emblemized icons with device pixel ratio.

This software has a lot of hard-coded references to external binaries,
with sometimes incorrect assumptions. Deal with these through the SUBST
framework for now. (Any mistakes here are solely mine.)
Arqiver is a simple Qt5 archive manager as a front-end for libarchive
(bsdtar), gzip and 7z.
