Vydanie 7-Zip 24.05

Igor Pavlov announced a significant release of the archiver 7-Zip 24.05. The project code is written in C++ and is distributed under the LGPL license. Ready-made builds for Windows and Linux are available for i686, x86-64, and ARM 32/64 architectures. Unfortunately, most distributions still ship the outdated p7zip, which is over 7 years old. This is likely due to the fact that the 7z code depends on the ASMC project, which is no longer used anywhere.
