Adds a formula for cartesi/genext2fs v1.5.6.
Naming

xgenext2fsrather thangenext2fsbecause homebrew-core already ships agenext2fsformula (upstream 1.6.2) — reusing that name would shadow it and conflict for anyone with both taps.xgenext2fsmatches both the installed binary and the fork's ownAC_INITpackage name, so the two coexist.Notes
autoconf/automakeare build deps: the release tarball ships noconfigure, onlyautogen.sh+configure.ac.libarchiveis a runtime dep, not build-only —--enable-libarchivedefaults to on and the binary linkslibarchive.13.dylibfrom the keg-only formula. That also means the bottle can't be:any_skip_relocation.GPL-2.0-only— the source header says "version 2 of the License" with no "or later", unlike upstream'sGPL-2.0-or-later.bottleblock;brew pr-pullwill add it.Verification
Locally on arm64 macOS, with the formula staged into the tap:
brew audit --strict --online cartesi/tap/xgenext2fs— cleanbrew install --build-from-source cartesi/tap/xgenext2fs— installsbin/xgenext2fsandman8/xgenext2fs.8brew test cartesi/tap/xgenext2fs— passesThe test builds an image from a directory and from a tarball; the tarball case exercises the libarchive path, so a broken libarchive link fails the test instead of silently shipping. It passes
