> avoid the entry allocation completely before we are sure the header is not
corrupted
Probably not possible with the current code... **tryToLocateEndHeader** is
the real cause because it does no CRC check and cannot, because by definition
it's already a corrupt file.
I have crafted a 233 byte malformed 7z which would attempt to allocate
268,435,455 files but I'm not certain it's wise to post it here. This is in
some way related to my own problems with a very large 7z because the "kName"
section allocates an enormous buffer for filenames (fixable by streaming the
bytes instead).
