Speeding up bulk archiving in org-agenda.

Marking items in bulk in the agenda, then bulk archiving them, had gotten really slow for me. Turns out it was because my _GTD.orgarchive file had gotten so big (>30,000 lines).

I copied _GTD.orgarchive to _GTD.orgarchive-2021-03-25, then emptied _GTD.orgarchive. Now it's nice and fast to archive in bulk again.
