## Summary
The `EXT4.Inode` struct is public but its properties were internal,
preventing external consumers from reading inode metadata. This change
makes the properties public to enable use cases like reading file
metadata (mode, uid, gid, timestamps) from ext4 filesystems.

Optimize unpack a little by trying to reduce allocations in the hot
path. Today for every file we read the entire file into memory and then
pass the data blob to the ext4 writer to eventually be written to the
sparse file. Before being written to the sparse file the data is copied
*again* to a temp buffer before finally hitting write(2) in FileHandle.
This change moves things around such that we can pass an optional buffer
to the ext4 create() (so we can reuse a buffer for file writes), as well
as stops reading entire files into memory by passing the archive entry
itself (wrapped in a ReaderStream object albeit) down to the writer.
Testing with unpacking every platform for
`docker.io/jenkins/jenkins:lts` on an M1 Max:
Old Avg (5 runs): 7.43s
New Avg (5 runs): 5.31s
Continue the allocations journey for anything that is in the codepaths
for pulling images. This time there's a couple spots in archive and ext4
we can get rid of some copies.
- FileTimestamps constructor that actually let you provide values was
not public, so it wasn't possible to pass in values other than nil. This
change makes the other constructor and the underlying fields public.
- Rename EXT4+Format to EXT4+Formatter
- Rename EXT4+Export to EXT4Reader+Export
- Make the superblock publicly accessible in the reader like the docs
for the product states.
- Corrected the typo in the method name (`Extened` → `Extended`)
- Updated all references to reflect the corrected spelling
- Introduced a `@available(*, deprecated)` alias for the original method
to maintain backward compatibility, as it was part of the public API
This change adds documentation to quite a few existing public types that
didn't have a blurb before.
Additionally, this fixes a couple things that I think either didn't make
sense when going to document them:
- Rename ConnectionStream to VsockConnectionStream. This type only
functions for vsock connections.
- Deletes NsLock+Closure. This was not used anywhere.
- Rename ContainerizationOCI/Config.swift to ImageConfig.swift.
