a7fca52f07 create part items rather than checkpoint items 
checkpoint items: chunks abc, abcdef, abcdefghi, ....
part items: chunks abc, def, ghi

solves the "restore a big file over unstable connection issue" (not very comfortably, but
one can just extract one part after the other and concatenate them to get the full file)

b6966a56dc document how to debug / file filesystem issues, fixes #664 
if the filesystem issue can't be reproduced with a known-good,
local fs like ext4 on linux, the issue is likely not borg's fault.

e7f25d7821 docs: use zlib,6 compression in some examples, fixes #275 
This is what attic used by default, but borgbackup defaults to "no compression".

I just adjusted the command invocation, so we can keep the example output
(which shows that stuff was compressed).

Also: add FAQ item about compression.

cb5c9b63b3 fork: s/attic/borg/g, fix URLs, add new section to AUTHORS 
use borg instead attic except at the places where it was used:
- as toplevel package name, directory name, file name
- to refer to original attic

remove sphinx upload make command, will be replaced by github.io site later

remove references to binary downloads and linux packages for now

remove some software name references, fix grammar

use borgbackup rather than borg-backup (or borg) in URLs,
less name collision issues, better search results, no validity issues with "-"
