4.4.0

This release comes with a special change. An internal piece of Box, Paragonie's Pharaoh, has been removed as a dependency. Its original code has been brought within the Box project and better integrated. This birthed a new class PharInfo which allows to provide a similar but richer API than Phar|PharData without its traditional problems. Thanks to this, the info and diff commands could be completely revamped.

TLDR: the biggest change is the diff command that can now be reliably be used to compare two PHARs.
