Subject: [PATCH 11/28] Move async sparse tests to
TarReader.SparseFile.Tests.cs
Moved GnuSparse10Pax_DataStreamExpandsSparseSections_Async,
GnuSparse10Pax_NilSparseData_Async, and GnuSparse10Pax_NilSparseHole_Async
from TarReader.GetNextEntryAsync.Tests.cs to TarReader.SparseFile.Tests.cs
per review feedback to consolidate all sparse tests in one file.
Also removed unused System.Collections.Generic using from the async test file.

Subject: [PATCH 12/28] Fix buffer overflow in ParseSparseMap for long
malformed lines
The buffer-full check used exact equality (availableStart == bytes.Length)
which missed the case where availableStart was close to but not equal to
the buffer size. A malicious archive with a sparse map line longer than
~1022 bytes could trigger ArgumentOutOfRangeException instead of the
intended InvalidDataException. Changed the check to verify there is room
for another RecordSize (512-byte) fill before attempting it.
Added test case with a 512+ byte line to verify proper error handling.

Subject: [PATCH 14/28] Refactor: separate _gnuSparseDataStream from
_dataStream, simplify ReadFromPackedData
- Store GnuSparseStream in _header._gnuSparseDataStream, keeping _dataStream
as the raw (condensed) stream. TarEntry.DataStream returns the sparse wrapper
for users while TarWriter writes condensed content via _dataStream.
- Replace GetSubReadStream() with BaseStream property on GnuSparseStream.
GnuSparseStream no longer knows about SubReadStream.
- Simplify AdvanceDataStreamIfNeeded: _dataStream is now directly the
SubReadStream, so no special GnuSparseStream unwrapping is needed.
- Remove _dataStart field from GnuSparseStream. ReadFromPackedData now
tracks position via _nextPackedOffset for both seekable and non-seekable
streams, using TarHelpers.AdvanceStream for skipping.
- Change ReadFromPackedData/Async to use plain Read instead of ReadExactly,
returning the actual byte count. The outer Read loop breaks after an
underlying read, consistent with Stream.Read contract.
- Remove copy test (needs investigation: TarWriter writes zeros for the
condensed data section despite _dataStream being positioned correctly).

Subject: [PATCH 15/28] Fix ReadFromPackedData positioning and add copy
round-trip test
Restore _dataStart field in GnuSparseStream. After ProcessDataBlock resets
_dataStream.Position = 0 (for TarWriter round-tripping), the raw stream
position no longer matches _nextPackedOffset. ReadFromPackedData now computes
the absolute target position (_dataStart + packedOffset) and uses the actual
stream position for seekable streams to determine the skip distance.
Add CopySparseEntryToNewArchive_PreservesExpandedContent test that verifies
sparse entries round-trip through TarWriter: read a sparse entry, write it
to a new archive (condensed data preserved), re-read and verify expanded
content matches the original.

Subject: [PATCH 17/28] Defer sparse map parsing to first Read for non-seekable
stream support
GnuSparseStream now parses the sparse map lazily on first Read/ReadAsync
instead of eagerly in the constructor. This means ProcessDataBlock no
longer consumes the raw data stream when creating the GnuSparseStream
wrapper, so _dataStream remains at position 0 (unconsumed) for:
- TarWriter.WriteEntry: copies the full condensed data (map + packed
segments) regardless of whether the archive source was seekable
- AdvanceDataStreamIfNeeded: advances past the full data section normally
This eliminates the need for the Position=0 reset hack and the
dataSectionStart save, and makes sparse entry round-tripping work
correctly for both seekable and non-seekable source archives.
The CanSeek branch in ReadFromPackedData is also removed since the raw
stream position is now always consistent with _nextPackedOffset after
EnsureInitialized.

Subject: [PATCH 18/28] Add non-seekable source tests for sparse entry copy
round-trip
Extended CopySparseEntryToNewArchive_PreservesExpandedContent with
seekableSource parameter (true/false) to test both seekable and
non-seekable archive stream scenarios.
Added NonSeekableStream wrapper that properly delegates Read(Span)
for correct interaction with SubReadStream position tracking.
Updated corrupted sparse map tests to assert on first DataStream.Read
instead of GetNextEntry, since lazy sparse map parsing defers the
InvalidDataException to the first read operation.
Fixed nullable reference warnings in GnuSparseStream by adding
Debug.Assert after EnsureInitialized calls.

Subject: [PATCH 20/28] Consolidate sparse layout tests into single
parameterized test
Replaced 6 separate test methods (SingleSegmentAtStart_NoHoles,
SingleSegmentInMiddle_LeadingAndTrailingHoles,
MultipleSegmentsWithHolesInBetween, AllHoles_ReadsAsAllZeros,
SingleSegmentInMiddle_Async, MultipleSegments_Async) with a single
SparseLayout_ExpandsCorrectly theory using MemberData that combines
layout, copyData, and useAsync parameters.
Added VerifyExpandedContent helper to verify expanded content matches
the segment layout, and PairsToSegments to convert flat arrays to
segment tuples for MemberData compatibility.

- Merge sync/async corrupted map tests into one parameterized theory
with useAsync parameter. Fold TruncatedAfterSegmentCount into the
InlineData list (its input '1\n' was already a test case).
- Merge MissingSparseAttributes and WrongMajorMinor into one
WrongSparseVersion_EntryReadAsNormal with wrongMajor parameter.
- Remove GnuSparse10Pax_DataStreamExpandsSparseSections (redundant
with SparseLayout_ExpandsCorrectly parameterized test).
- Remove GnuSparse10Pax_*_Async tests (async coverage already
provided by SparseLayout_ExpandsCorrectly with useAsync: true).

Subject: [PATCH 23/28] Address code review: remove unused _dataStart, add
overflow check, fix test issues
- Remove unused _dataStart field and totalBytesRead tracking from
GnuSparseStream (assigned but never read)
- Add checked arithmetic in InitializeFromParsedMap prefix sum to
guard against overflow from malformed sparse maps
- Fix long-to-int cast for array allocation in test (new byte[realSize])
- Dispose TarReader in GetSparseDataStream test helper (leaveOpen: true)

Subject: [PATCH 26/28] Use MemberData for corrupted sparse map tests, exercise
all cases sync and async
Replace InlineData with MemberData generator that yields every
corrupted map string with both useAsync=false and useAsync=true,
ensuring full sync/async coverage for all 11 corruption scenarios.

Subject: [PATCH 27/28] Address review: dispose raw stream, check skipBytes,
fix async AdvanceStream
- GnuSparseStream.Dispose now disposes the underlying raw stream
- Replace Debug.Assert with runtime check for negative skipBytes on
non-seekable streams in ReadFromPackedData/ReadFromPackedDataAsync
- Restore AdvanceStreamAsync in the async ProcessDataBlock path
(was incorrectly changed to sync AdvanceStream)
