Starting with the 2024.05.01 release, the Arch Linux bootstrap tarball uses zstd compression.

I managed to convert a Debian 12 droplet to Arch with this (Debian 10 kept hanging on entering fakeroot), but I had to add zstd to the host packages.

I had the same results, and fixed it the same way... but I ended up having to statically link the latest tarball and SHA for... reasons I've since forgotten.... lol.
