As we recently discussed missing pack200 support, I stumbled about
commons-compress announcing support for pack200 (reading and writing if
I understand correctly):

https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-compress/
https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-compress/apidocs/org/apache/commons/compress/compressors/pack200/package-summary.html

So i wonder if we at least support reading pack200 artifacts?

It would be nice if there were some measurements how much it helps with newer/latest JVMs/bytecode first. After that p2 should be ported to use commons compress too as without it support in tycho only wouldn't help much.
