the pointer to the pool may be useful, but holding on that until I get
benchmarks of memory use to show the benefit.

io.Copy usually allocates a 32kB buffer, and due to the large
number of files processed by tar-split, this shows up in Go profiles
as a very large alloc_space total.
It doesn't seem to actually be a measurable problem in any way,
but we can allocate the buffer only once per tar-split creation,
at no additional cost to existing allocations, so let's do so,
and remove the distraction.

To ensure we don't have regressions in our padding fix, add a test case
that attempts to crash the test by creating 20GB of random junk padding.

Previously, we would read the entire padding in a given archive into
memory in order to store it in the packer. This would cause memory
exhaustion if a malicious archive was crafted with very large amounts of
padding. Since a given SegmentType is reconstructed losslessly, we can
simply chunk up any padding into large segments to avoid this problem.
Use a reasonable default of 1MiB to avoid changing the tar-split.json of
existing archives that are not malformed.

- New writeTo method allows to avoid creating extra pipe.
- Copy with a pooled buffer instead of allocating new buffer for each file.
- Avoid extra object allocations inside the loop.

When the entry name is not UTF-8, for example ISO-8859-1, then store the
raw bytes.
To accommodate this, we will have getters and setters for the entry's
name now. Since this most heavily affects the json marshalling, we'll
double check the sanity of the name before storing it in the JSONPacker.
It uses slightly less memory and more understandable.
