Srikanth Yalavarthi Oct. 29, 2023, 8:20 a.m. UTC 
  In order to avoid linking with Libs.private, libarchive
is not added to ext_deps during the meson setup stage.

Since libarchive is not added to ext_deps, cross-compilation
or native compilation with libarchive installed in non-standard
location fails with errors related to "cannot find -larchive"
or "archive.h: No such file or directory". In order to fix the
build failures, user is required to define the 'c_args' and
'c_link_args' with '-I<includedir>' and '-L<libdir>'.

This patch adds libarchive to ext_deps and further would not
require setting c_args and c_link_args externally.

Fixes: 40edb9c0d36b ("eal: handle compressed firmware")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org
