Feature: Add support for streaming ArchiveFiles

[Peilonrayz]

I have some large files that I need to extract, given their size and that pylzma reads the entire file into memory, can a stream API be provided for py7zlib.ArchiveFile objects.

This could be via a read_streamed(chunk_size=...) -> Iterator[bytes] function or allowing a size to be entered into read - read(amount=None) -> bytes. Allowing users to roll their own read_streamed:

def read_streamed(archive, chunk_size):
    while True:
        data = archive.read(chunk_size)
        if not data:
            break
        yield data

This would allow:

• Users to read large archived files, without breaking the computer.
• Remove the need for Remaining progress callback #11 as users can implement this themselves.

Any progress on this? Thank you

Also in the context of GlobaLeaks we would find this pretty useful.

Our need is to be able to perform zip+encryption for files bigger than the available server RAM.

For this reason we currently implement zip in streaming with a modified version of zipfile inspired form spideroa, but we are looking for the possibility to bind AES encryption to it
