Improve archive init API

* No more separate mutable archive subclass (ref #24).

* Initializers and factory methods may now return nil, along with error information.

* Initializers now take an options dictionary, which allows for expansion. For now, you can set ZZOpenOptionsEncodingKey for string encoding and ZZOpenOptionsCreateIfMissingKey to create the archive file if it is missing.

* Drop the public load: method, as initializers and updateEntries: do any necessary loading. It’s fairly cheap to create a new archive object to reload changed contents, and we no longer lazily load contents and entries.

* The redesign prevents creating erroneous objects e.g. file not found may be a legitimate problem, and prevents swallowing of read errors during lazy loading.

* Update podspec to version 8.0.

 The zip file is an ideal container for compound Objective-C documents. Zip files are widely used and well understood. You can randomly access their parts. The format compresses decently and has extensive operating system and tool support. So we want to make this format an even easier choice for you. Thus, the library features:
 
-* **Easy-to-use interface**: The public API offers just three classes! Yet you can look through zip files using familiar *NSArray* collections and properties. And you can zip, unzip and rezip zip files through familiar *NSData*, *NSStream* and Image I/O classes.
+* **Easy-to-use interface**: The public API offers just two classes! Yet you can look through zip files using familiar *NSArray* collections and properties. And you can zip, unzip and rezip zip files through familiar *NSData*, *NSStream* and Image I/O classes.
 * **Efficient implementation**: We've optimized zip file reading and writing to reduce virtual memory pressure and disk file thrashing. Depending on how your compound document is organized, updating a single entry can be faster than writing the same data to a separate file.
 * **File format compatibility**: Since *zipzap* closely follows the [zip file format specification](http://www.pkware.com/documents/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT), it works with most Mac, Linux and Windows zip tools.
