Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the Windows archive build that produces clang+llvm-*-pc-windows-msvc.tar.xz and .tar.zst, then review how tar, xz, and zst are selected. Compare the requested 7z alternative with dropping tar for these builds. Done means the archive approach is agreed, implemented for the Windows artifacts, and verified to support extracting selected files without unnecessary space.
