Research direction
Start with Library/DiscUtils.Containers/DiscUtils.Containers.csproj and the supported container formats listed in the issue. Trace how Multiextractor detects and dispatches those formats, then determine the integration point for XVA. Done means XVA archives are recognized and extracted alongside the existing ISO, VHD, VHDX, VMDK, and WIM formats.
