v0.4.0

Overview

This is a major release that overhauls our architecture to be much more stable and introduces concurrent unpacking to make our performance for many small files on par with node-tar and sometimes significantly exceed it. To learn more about the architecture, you can read more about it here 👾

Additionally, there are some breaking changes to cleanup the API:

• Removed validateSymlinks option from UnpackOptionsFS. This is enabled by default.
• Removed createTarOptionsTransformer which is now baked into existing function options.
• Rewrote error messages to be a bit more concise.

These changes are unlikely to affect any existing users.
