One thing I forgot to tell Efraim about is that I got around to looking
at nar support in diffoscope. I know this isn't essential as you can
just unpack the nars, then compare (as I think guix challenge does), but
I've been thinking this could make it easier to compare nars.

Anyway, as part of this I proposed adding lzip support, since nars can
be lzipped, that turned out to be quite easy:

I'm finding nar support a bit harder though, I've raised a merge request
anyway to see if I can get any feedback:
