Recently was published few new compression algorithms and formats that are going to be quite popular:
Brotli from Google: is supported by all browsers, was standardized and have it's RFC but it doesn't have magic signature.
LZ4 which is ultra fast and lightweight.
ZStandard from Facebook which is already widely supported by a lot of systems including Linux kernel. It's mime type is
application/zstd
and it's magic is\x28\xB5\x2F\xFD
Could you add a support for them? If yes please also add their tar version (tzst, tlz4, tbr).
The more programs supports them then the easier it will be to migrate to this compressors.
