… a launching script name to a startup_script
Update the ARCHIVE_DIR variable to provide an absolute path even when the makeself script is launched with a relative path. An absolute path is needed when the startup script is ask to place folder and files in a directory relative to the makeself script location.
Add the ARCHIVE_BASE variable. This provides the name of the originating makeself script. This is useful to provide feedback to the user in for example 'usage' messages.
