Description
Currently if you set ExtractSelfOnFail you'll the parent archive but not any (limited) contents that we were able to extract out of the archive. Consider adding an additional flag for use with ExtractSelfOnFail that would also include everything we could find. This would require adding a field to FileEntry to indicate partially extracted file, perhaps with gradations of how much was extracted.

Research direction
Start by tracing how ExtractSelfOnFail handles parent archives and how FileEntry represents extracted contents. Determine how partially extracted files should be represented and how a verbose flag would include them. Done means the requested flag behavior and extraction gradations are defined and covered by appropriate tests.
