    Add a script to compress old expinfo directories. · c8827ceb

    Run it as "archive-expinfo [-t threshold]", where "threshold" is the
    number of days experiments must have been inactive to be compressed
    (defaulting to 1000).
    
    Directories will be tarred and compressed in place.  For example, if
    /usr/testbed/expinfo/testbed/example/1234 has been inactive for longer
    than the threshold, its entire contents will be archived in
    /usr/testbed/expinfo/testbed/example/1234.tar.bz2 and the original
    directory removed.
    
    The compression is extremely efficient, typically reducing directories
    to around 2% of their original size.
