Create an Icrecream environment tarball

    icecc-create-env
    compiler-binary
    --addfile file

## Description

&icecc-create-env; is an Icecream helper that creates a new `.tar.gz` archive with all the files (compiler, tools and libraries) needed to setup a build environment.

The resulting archive has a random file name like `ddaea39ca1a7c88522b185eca04da2d8.tar.gz`, which can then be renamed. See icecream(7) for more information on using the environment tarballs.

Note that in the usual case it is not necessary to invoke icecc-create-env manually, as it will be called automatically for the native compiler used whenever necessary.

## Options

`--addfile` `file`

- Add `file` to the environment archive; can be specified multiple times.
