package kit: Skip over future package attributes.
Ignore unknown fields (also called attributes) which are from a package file with a different minor version number. Previously it would halt with an error when encountering such a field, even though it can safely be skipped over (if it was unsafe, we would have incremented the major version number). The use case is a future package attribute for pre-uninstall scripts. If they're not run, that just leaves some debris after uninstalling (like symbolic link desktop icons). * Use the B_NOT_SUPPORTED error code when reading unknown package attributes. Don't treat it as an error if the package is a different minor version, just skip it. * Print unknown package attribute index numbers rather than stopping, since they may be from future package file formats and can be safely skipped otherwise. Mention the relevant enum so you can find it in the source code. It's a pity that the previous abstraction layer isn't present, since it tells us what data type the attribute is (string, number, etc), so we could have printed its value too. First step of two for enhancement #13427 See https://review.haiku-os.org/c/haiku/+/1504 to generate packages with a different minor version number (second step of the enhancement).
