reltool would package applications in archives by default but there is little to no gain in doing so. Furthermore, this ability pushed complexity into other parts of Erlang/OTP, such as the code server, erl_prim_loader, and the init module. This release makes it so archives are no longer supported but the underlying options still warn to avoid breaking changes. No functionality should be removed from the assembled released (except that they will have 100% fewer archives).
