Review Comment:
I just realized that I misunderstood what @adamreeve wrote, as you
acknowledge that this is breaking for downlevel .NET. I suspect that custom
implementations of `ICompressionCodec` are pretty rare, and am fighting to
square this with my dislike for breaking changes of any kind.
One approach to avoiding the break is to define a new interface
`ICompressionCodec2` which derives from `ICompressionCodec` and then adds the
member. The consuming code can then wrap any `ICompressionCodec` it gets with a
helper that implements `ICompressionCodec2`.
And yes, I know the name `ICompressionCodec2` is awful.
