Akshat Shenoi updated SPARK-57479:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
Following the CSV (SPARK-57135 / SPARK-57321) and JSON (SPARK-57419) 
tar-archive support, extend the XML data source to read and infer schema from 
.tar/.tar.gz/.tgz archives, gated by spark.sql.files.archive.reader.enabled.

When the flag is enabled, the V1 XML source treats a tar archive as a directory 
of its entries: each entry is streamed through the StaxXmlParser (never 
unpacked to disk) and parsed exactly like a standalone XML file. Both the read 
and schema-inference paths handle each entry per parsing mode, mirroring a 
non-archive read — multi-line parses each entry as one document; single-line 
treats each line as a record (run through a FailureSafeParser for the same 
per-record corrupt-record handling as a non-archive read).

Schema inference makes a single XmlInferSchema pass over every archive entry 
together with any loose files, so the inferred schema matches a directory read 
of the same files (a field typed in one input but absent in another widens; a 
NullType field survives to one final canonicalization rather than being 
collapsed per input).

The whole archive is one non-splittable unit. XML has no DSv2 reader, so the 
archive scan is V1-only.

When the flag is enabled, the V1 XML source treats a tar archive as a directory 
of its entries: each entry is streamed through the StaxXmlParser (never 
unpacked to disk) and tokenized into its rowTag-delimited records, exactly like 
a standalone XML file. Schema inference makes a single XmlInferSchema pass over 
every archive entry together with any loose files, so the inferred schema 
matches a directory read of the same files (a field typed in one input but 
absent in another widens; a NullType field survives to one final 
canonicalization rather than being collapsed per input).
