better-limit-reader-rs

Exposes LimitReader which is a limit reader, that protects against zip-bombs and other nefarious activities that limits the number of bytes read from an underlying reader.

This crate is heavily inspired by Jon Gjengset’s “Crust of Rust” episode on the inner workings of git on YouTube and mitigrating Zip-bombs.
