#41 Smart extract

[Snow]

Add a "Smart extract" option to the Explorer context
menu. It does the following:

1) Extract ".tar.gz" and ".tar.bz2" in one operation.
2) Create exactly 1 target (file or directory): if the
archive contains exactly one item, then that's it (like
"extract here"); if it contains multiple items, then
create a directory (like "extract to...").

The patch is against 4.32.

I've attached a version of the 7-zip DLL that includes this
patch. It is for 4.32 only.

Instructions:

1) Install 7-Zip v4.32.
2) Rename c:\Program Files\7-Zip\7-Zip.dll to 7-Zip.dll.original
3) Put the modified one in its place.
4) Reboot.

Looking forward to item #2 epsecially :) I was going to ask for that but I am glad it's been implemented already.

A question: when I write an Explorer action thus, to do expand-on-double-click:

"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7zG.exe" x "%1" -o*

How will this patch affect this? How will I command 7zG to create a folder to contain the archive contents only if the archive contains multiple items at its root?
