[Feature Request]: provide an overwrite mode when decompressing the file

[rikyoz]

Hi!

english is not good. excuse me 😅.

Mine too, no problem! :D

I can't find a way to set the override mode. Is there any way?

Unfortunately, there's no direct way to set it, at least for now.

I think that OverwriteMode::RenameExist might be achievable by using BitFileExtractor's fileCallback:

ext.setFileCallback( []( const string& path ) {
   auto full_path = output_path + "/" + path;
   // You might emulate OverwriteMode::RenameExist by checking if full_path exists,
   // and in case, rename it.
   // The file callback is called before the overwrite code.
}

I will definitely implement such a feature as soon as possible, but it will require quite a bit of refactoring of the library's internal code, so I'm not sure it will make it into the stable v4.0.
Anyway, thank you for your suggestion!
