StuffIt 5 (.sit v5, magic “StuffIt (c)1997…”) container reader.
A different container from classic SIT!, but it reuses the same fork
compression methods (0 none, 13 LZ+Huffman, 15 Arsenic), so once parsed the
forks flow through super::stuffit::decompress_fork. Ported from XADMaster
XADStuffIt5Parser.m.
Common in the wild (e.g. Apple’s own Mac OS 7.1 800K disk set). Encrypted archives are detected and rejected.
