Since debian packaging system requires source package to compress tar
file, so let's use .gz compression.

A relocatable package contains the Scylla (and iotune)
executables (in a bin/ directory), any libraries they may need (lib/)
the configuration file defaults (conf/) and supporting scripts (dist/).
The libraries are picked up from the host; including libc and the dynamic
linker (ld.so).
We also provide a thunk script that forces the library path
(LD_LIBRARY_PATH) to point at our libraries, and overrides the
interpreter to point at our ld.so.
With these files, it is possible to run a fully functional Scylla
instance on any Linux distribution. This is similar to chroot or
containers, except that we run in the same namespace as the host.
The packages are created by running
ninja build/release/scylla-package.tar
or
ninja --mode debug build/debug/scylla-package.tar
