WIP: Implement compressed tar detection in TarFactory (seeking clarification)

Enhanced TarFactory.IsArchive() to detect compressed tar formats (tar.bz2, tar.lz, etc.) by:
- Checking if stream contains tar header directly (for uncompressed)
- Testing each compression format to see if it contains a tar file

Enhanced TarFactory.Open() methods to decompress compressed tar files to MemoryStream for seekable access.

Current blockers:
- Some compression stream constructors (LZipStream) don't support leaveOpen parameter
- Stream disposal during detection phase causes issues with factory detection flow

Awaiting clarification from @adamhathcock on preferred architecture approach.

+# Copilot Coding Agent Configuration
+
+This repository includes a minimal opt-in configuration and CI workflow to allow the GitHub Copilot coding agent to open and validate PRs.
+
+- .copilot-agent.yml: opt-in config for automated agents
+- .github/agents/copilot-agent.yml: detailed agent policy configuration
+- .github/workflows/dotnetcore.yml: CI runs on PRs touching the solution, source, or tests to validate changes
+- AGENTS.md: general instructions for Copilot coding agent with project-specific guidelines
+
+Maintainers can adjust the allowed paths or disable the agent by editing or removing .copilot-agent.yml.
+
+Notes:
+- The agent can create, modify, and delete files within the allowed paths (src, tests, README.md, AGENTS.md)
+- All changes require review before merge
+- If build/test paths are different, update the workflow accordingly; this workflow targets SharpCompress.sln and the SharpCompress.Test test project.

+
+# SharpCompress Development
+
+## About SharpCompress
+SharpCompress is a pure C# compression library supporting multiple archive formats (Zip, Tar, GZip, BZip2, 7Zip, Rar, LZip, XZ, ZStandard) for .NET Framework 4.62, .NET Standard 2.1, .NET 6.0, and .NET 8.0. The library provides both seekable Archive APIs and forward-only Reader/Writer APIs for streaming scenarios.
+
+## C# Instructions
+- Always use the latest version C#, currently C# 13 features.
+- Write clear and concise comments for each function.
+- Follow the existing code style and patterns in the codebase.
+
+## General Instructions
+- Make only high confidence suggestions when reviewing code changes.
+- Write code with good maintainability practices, including comments on why certain design decisions were made.
+- Handle edge cases and write clear exception handling.
+- For libraries or external dependencies, mention their usage and purpose in comments.
+- Preserve backward compatibility when making changes to public APIs.
+
+## Naming Conventions
+
+- Follow PascalCase for component names, method names, and public members.
+- Use camelCase for private fields and local variables.
+- Prefix interface names with "I" (e.g., IUserService).
+
+## Code Formatting
+
+- Use CSharpier for code formatting to ensure consistent style across the project
+- CSharpier is configured as a local tool in `.config/dotnet-tools.json`
+- Restore tools with: `dotnet tool restore`
+- Format files from the project root with: `dotnet csharpier .`
+- **Run `dotnet csharpier .` from the project root after making code changes before committing**
+- Configure your IDE to format on save using CSharpier for the best experience
+- The project also uses `.editorconfig` for editor settings (indentation, encoding, etc.)
+- Let CSharpier handle code style while `.editorconfig` handles editor behavior
+
+## Project Setup and Structure
+
+- The project targets multiple frameworks: .NET Framework 4.62, .NET Standard 2.1, .NET 6.0, and .NET 8.0
+- Main library is in `src/SharpCompress/`
+- Tests are in `tests/SharpCompress.Test/`
+- Performance tests are in `tests/SharpCompress.Performance/`
+- Test archives are in `tests/TestArchives/`
+- Build project is in `build/`
+- Use `dotnet build` to build the solution
+- Use `dotnet test` to run tests
+- Solution file: `SharpCompress.sln`

+  ├── TestBase.cs      # Base test class with helper methods
+  └── TestArchives/    # Test data (not checked into main test project)
+```
+
+### Factory Pattern
+All format types implement factory interfaces (`IArchiveFactory`, `IReaderFactory`, `IWriterFactory`) for auto-detection:
+- `ReaderFactory.Open()` - Auto-detects format by probing stream
+- `WriterFactory.Open()` - Creates writer for specified `ArchiveType`
+- Factories located in: `src/SharpCompress/Factories/`
+
+## Nullable Reference Types
+
+- Declare variables non-nullable, and check for `null` at entry points.
+- Always use `is null` or `is not null` instead of `== null` or `!= null`.
+- Trust the C# null annotations and don't add null checks when the type system says a value cannot be null.
+
+## SharpCompress-Specific Guidelines
+
+### Supported Formats
+SharpCompress supports multiple archive and compression formats:
+- **Archive Formats**: Zip, Tar, 7Zip, Rar (read-only)
+- **Compression**: DEFLATE, BZip2, LZMA/LZMA2, PPMd, ZStandard (decompress only), Deflate64 (decompress only)
+- **Combined Formats**: Tar.GZip, Tar.BZip2, Tar.LZip, Tar.XZ, Tar.ZStandard
+- See FORMATS.md for complete format support matrix
+
+### Stream Handling Rules
+- **Disposal**: As of version 0.21, SharpCompress closes wrapped streams by default
+- Use `ReaderOptions` or `WriterOptions` with `LeaveStreamOpen = true` to control stream disposal
+- Use `NonDisposingStream` wrapper when working with compression streams directly to prevent disposal
+- Always dispose of readers, writers, and archives in `using` blocks
+- For forward-only operations, use Reader/Writer APIs; for random access, use Archive APIs
+
+### Async/Await Patterns
+- All I/O operations support async/await with `CancellationToken`
+- Async methods follow the naming convention: `MethodNameAsync`
+- Key async methods:
+  - `WriteEntryToAsync` - Extract entry asynchronously
+  - `WriteAllToDirectoryAsync` - Extract all entries asynchronously
+  - `WriteAsync` - Write entry asynchronously
+  - `WriteAllAsync` - Write directory asynchronously
+  - `OpenEntryStreamAsync` - Open entry stream asynchronously
+- Always provide `CancellationToken` parameter in async methods
+
+### Archive APIs vs Reader/Writer APIs
+- **Archive API**: Use for random access with seekable streams (e.g., `ZipArchive`, `TarArchive`)
+- **Reader API**: Use for forward-only reading on non-seekable streams (e.g., `ZipReader`, `TarReader`)
+- **Writer API**: Use for forward-only writing on streams (e.g., `ZipWriter`, `TarWriter`)
+- 7Zip only supports Archive API due to format limitations
+
+### Tar-Specific Considerations
+- Tar format requires file size in the header
+- If no size is specified to TarWriter and the stream is not seekable, an exception will be thrown
+- Tar combined with compression (GZip, BZip2, LZip, XZ) is supported
+
+### Zip-Specific Considerations
+- Supports Zip64 for large files (seekable streams only)
+- Supports PKWare and WinZip AES encryption
+- Multiple compression methods: None, Shrink, Reduce, Implode, DEFLATE, Deflate64, BZip2, LZMA, PPMd
+- Encrypted LZMA is not supported
+
+### Performance Considerations
+- For large files, use Reader/Writer APIs with non-seekable streams to avoid loading entire file in memory
+- Leverage async I/O for better scalability
+- Consider compression level trade-offs (speed vs. size)
+- Use appropriate buffer sizes for stream operations
+
+## Testing
+
+- Always include test cases for critical paths of the application.
+- Test with multiple archive formats when making changes to core functionality.
+- Include tests for both Archive and Reader/Writer APIs when applicable.
+- Test async operations with cancellation tokens.
+- Do not emit "Act", "Arrange" or "Assert" comments.
+- Copy existing style in nearby files for test method names and capitalization.
+- Use test archives from `tests/TestArchives` directory for consistency.
+- Test stream disposal and `LeaveStreamOpen` behavior.
+- Test edge cases: empty archives, large files, corrupted archives, encrypted archives.
+
+### Test Organization
+- Base class: `TestBase` - Provides `TEST_ARCHIVES_PATH`, `SCRATCH_FILES_PATH`, temp directory management
+- Framework: xUnit with AwesomeAssertions
+- Test archives: `tests/TestArchives/` - Use existing archives, don't create new ones unnecessarily
+- Match naming style of nearby test files
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Don't mix Archive and Reader APIs** - Archive needs seekable stream, Reader doesn't
+2. **Solid archives (Rar, 7Zip)** - Use `ExtractAllEntries()` for best performance, not individual entry extraction
+3. **Stream disposal** - Always set `LeaveStreamOpen` explicitly when needed (default is to close)
+4. **Tar + non-seekable stream** - Must provide file size or it will throw
+5. **Multi-framework differences** - Some features differ between .NET Framework and modern .NET (e.g., Mono.Posix)
+6. **Format detection** - Use `ReaderFactory.Open()` for auto-detection, test with actual archive files

 3. The Tar format requires a file size in the header. If no size is specified to the TarWriter and the stream is not seekable, then an exception will be thrown.
 4. The 7Zip format doesn't allow for reading as a forward-only stream so 7Zip is only supported through the Archive API
 5. LZip has no support for extra data like the file name or timestamp. There is a default filename used when looking at the entry Key on the archive.
 
+### Zip Format Notes
+
+- Multi-volume/split ZIP archives require ZipArchive (seekable streams) as ZipReader cannot seek across volume files.
+- ZipReader processes entries from LocalEntry headers (which include directory entries ending with `/`) and intentionally skips DirectoryEntry headers from the central directory, as they are redundant in streaming mode - all entry data comes from LocalEntry headers which ZipReader has already processed.

+ZStandard is an efficient format that works well for streaming with a flexible compression level to tweak the speed/performance trade off you are looking for.  We currently only implement decompression for ZStandard but as we leverage the [ZstdSharp](https://github.com/oleg-st/ZstdSharp) library one could likely add compression support without much trouble (PRs are welcome!).
+
 ## A Simple Request
 
 Hi everyone. I hope you're using SharpCompress and finding it useful. Please give me feedback on what you'd like to see changed especially as far as usability goes. New feature suggestions are always welcome as well. I would also like to know what projects SharpCompress is being used in. I like seeing how it is used to give me ideas for future versions. Thanks!
 
 Please do not email me directly to ask for help. If you think there is a real issue, please report it here.
 
+## Async Usage
+
+SharpCompress now provides full async/await support for all I/O operations, allowing for better performance and scalability in modern applications.
+
+### Async Reading Examples
+
+Extract entries asynchronously:
+```csharp
+using (Stream stream = File.OpenRead("archive.zip"))
+using (var reader = ReaderFactory.Open(stream))
+{
+    while (reader.MoveToNextEntry())
+    {
+        if (!reader.Entry.IsDirectory)
+        {
+            // Async extraction
+            await reader.WriteEntryToDirectoryAsync(
+                @"C:\temp",
+                new ExtractionOptions() { ExtractFullPath = true, Overwrite = true },
+                cancellationToken
+            );
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Extract all entries to directory asynchronously:
+```csharp
+using (Stream stream = File.OpenRead("archive.tar.gz"))
+using (var reader = ReaderFactory.Open(stream))
+{
+    await reader.WriteAllToDirectoryAsync(
+        @"C:\temp",
+        new ExtractionOptions() { ExtractFullPath = true, Overwrite = true },
+        cancellationToken
+    );
+}
+```
+
+Open entry stream asynchronously:
+```csharp
+using (var archive = ZipArchive.Open("archive.zip"))
+{
+    foreach (var entry in archive.Entries.Where(e => !e.IsDirectory))
+    {
+        using (var entryStream = await entry.OpenEntryStreamAsync(cancellationToken))
+        {
+            // Process stream asynchronously
+            await entryStream.CopyToAsync(outputStream, cancellationToken);
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Async Writing Examples
+
+Write files asynchronously:
+```csharp
+using (Stream stream = File.OpenWrite("output.zip"))
+using (var writer = WriterFactory.Open(stream, ArchiveType.Zip, CompressionType.Deflate))
+{
+    await writer.WriteAsync("file1.txt", fileStream, DateTime.Now, cancellationToken);
+}
+```
+
+Write all files from directory asynchronously:
+```csharp
+using (Stream stream = File.OpenWrite("output.tar.gz"))
+using (var writer = WriterFactory.Open(stream, ArchiveType.Tar, new WriterOptions(CompressionType.GZip)))
+{
+    await writer.WriteAllAsync(@"D:\files", "*", SearchOption.AllDirectories, cancellationToken);
+}
+```
+
+All async methods support `CancellationToken` for graceful cancellation of long-running operations.
+
 ## Want to contribute?
 
 I'm always looking for help or ideas. Please submit code or email with ideas. Unfortunately, just letting me know you'd like to help is not enough because I really have no overall plan of what needs to be done. I'll definitely accept code submissions and add you as a member of the project!

 # SharpCompress Usage
 
+## Async/Await Support
+
+SharpCompress now provides full async/await support for all I/O operations. All `Read`, `Write`, and extraction operations have async equivalents ending in `Async` that accept an optional `CancellationToken`. This enables better performance and scalability for I/O-bound operations.
+
+**Key Async Methods:**
+- `reader.WriteEntryToAsync(stream, cancellationToken)` - Extract entry asynchronously  
+- `reader.WriteAllToDirectoryAsync(path, options, cancellationToken)` - Extract all asynchronously
+- `writer.WriteAsync(filename, stream, modTime, cancellationToken)` - Write entry asynchronously
+- `writer.WriteAllAsync(directory, pattern, searchOption, cancellationToken)` - Write directory asynchronously
+- `entry.OpenEntryStreamAsync(cancellationToken)` - Open entry stream asynchronously
+
+See [Async Examples](#async-examples) section below for usage patterns.
+
 ## Stream Rules (changed with 0.21)
 
 When dealing with Streams, the rule should be that you don't close a stream you didn't create. This, in effect, should mean you should always put a Stream in a using block to dispose it.

+## Async Examples
+
+### Async Reader Examples
+
+**Extract single entry asynchronously:**
+```C#
+using (Stream stream = File.OpenRead("archive.zip"))
+using (var reader = ReaderFactory.Open(stream))
+{
+    while (reader.MoveToNextEntry())
+    {
+        if (!reader.Entry.IsDirectory)

+                }
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Extract all entries asynchronously:**
+```C#
+using (Stream stream = File.OpenRead("archive.tar.gz"))
+using (var reader = ReaderFactory.Open(stream))
+{
+    await reader.WriteAllToDirectoryAsync(
+        @"D:\temp",

+            Overwrite = true
+        },
+        cancellationToken
+    );
+}
+```
+
+**Open and process entry stream asynchronously:**
+```C#
+using (var archive = ZipArchive.Open("archive.zip"))
+{
+    foreach (var entry in archive.Entries.Where(e => !e.IsDirectory))
+    {
+        using (var entryStream = await entry.OpenEntryStreamAsync(cancellationToken))
+        {
+            // Process the decompressed stream asynchronously
+            await ProcessStreamAsync(entryStream, cancellationToken);
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Async Writer Examples
+
+**Write single file asynchronously:**
+```C#
+using (Stream archiveStream = File.OpenWrite("output.zip"))
+using (var writer = WriterFactory.Open(archiveStream, ArchiveType.Zip, CompressionType.Deflate))
+{
+    using (Stream fileStream = File.OpenRead("input.txt"))
+    {
+        await writer.WriteAsync("entry.txt", fileStream, DateTime.Now, cancellationToken);
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Write entire directory asynchronously:**
+```C#
+using (Stream stream = File.OpenWrite("backup.tar.gz"))
+using (var writer = WriterFactory.Open(stream, ArchiveType.Tar, new WriterOptions(CompressionType.GZip)))
+{
+    await writer.WriteAllAsync(
+        @"D:\files",
+        "*",
+        SearchOption.AllDirectories,
+        cancellationToken
+    );
+}
+```
+
+**Write with progress tracking and cancellation:**
+```C#
+var cts = new CancellationTokenSource();
+
+// Set timeout or cancel from UI
+cts.CancelAfter(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5));
+
+using (Stream stream = File.OpenWrite("archive.zip"))
+using (var writer = WriterFactory.Open(stream, ArchiveType.Zip, CompressionType.Deflate))
+{
+    try
+    {
+        await writer.WriteAllAsync(@"D:\data", "*", SearchOption.AllDirectories, cts.Token);
+    }
+    catch (OperationCanceledException)
+    {
+        Console.WriteLine("Operation was cancelled");
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Archive Async Examples
+
+**Extract from archive asynchronously:**
+```C#
+using (var archive = ZipArchive.Open("archive.zip"))
+{
+    using (var reader = archive.ExtractAllEntries())
+    {
+        await reader.WriteAllToDirectoryAsync(
+            @"C:\output",
+            new ExtractionOptions() { ExtractFullPath = true, Overwrite = true },
+            cancellationToken
+        );
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits of Async Operations:**
+- Non-blocking I/O for better application responsiveness
+- Improved scalability for server applications
+- Support for cancellation via CancellationToken
+- Better resource utilization in async/await contexts
+- Compatible with modern .NET async patterns
