If it's true that the unpacked archive was always a Syslinux only
feature than I'm happy to mark that feature as deprecated, especially
given that there's such a simple upgrade path (move everything into the
archive).

If anyone is absolutely relying on the old behaviour and has a concrete
reason we need to continue to support it, shout out.
