Modify archive metadata in place #168

Another in-place enhancement idea.

I have a use case where I'd like to set member file timestamps of an existing archive in-place. Normally, you'd unpack, touch, and repack but that can be tough if it's a large archive.

One would naively think messing with timestamps should just be a seek and overwrite 4 bytes with no length changes. Thanks for reading.
