Description When a TAR is going to be extracted, don't do it immediately. Instead:
- Work out what files will be extracted and to where, by comparing file hashes
- Store all this in a todo file on disk
- Link to a truly independant upgrader script which will show the todo file to the user as a checklist and then work through it
- The independent upgrader script will self-refresh every 10 seconds, carrying on where it left off, showing the checklist status as it goes
