I have a problems with enabling compression in fdstream. In my case
use pass flag to VolDownload, in storage_driver i don't have ability
to access privateData of the stream, so i need to create additional
variable in stream struct ?
Or i miss something? Also does the same stream can be used to read and
write in the same time? (libarchive need to init own structure for
read or for write)
