Yes, please!

My first reaction was: but wait, what about the file mode? Then I
remembered that René offered the opinion that we could easily introduce
`--add-executable-file-with-contents` _iff_ we need that at some stage,
and when I considered symbolic links, I noticed that the `--add-file`
option does not accept those in the first place, so it would be funny if
`--add-file-with-contents` supported symbolic links.

Thanks,
Dscho
