Add progress to compressing/decompressing

[sigmaSd]

This pr uses the input size as an approximation for the compressed archive size.

[sigmaSd]

Some thoughts:

• This appears to work well on my testing
• I think I should also add a flag (no-progress-bar) to disable this, this is not only for users but for possible future interactive tests (should be straight forward, since I prepared for that with the display_handle api)
• Decompressing could also have this, but Its trickier because the output can be multiple files (so not sure what to monitor here)

Obviously this is subjective, Its up to you if its a good addition or not

I'm worried this conflicts a lot with #197

[sigmaSd]

I can add a cli flag that restores the original behaviour, if this sound a good idea otherwise

Yeah, that would make merging with --accessibility much easier.

Oh this is great, I just decompressed a relatively large thing and I thought it was stuck for a moment so I was about to see if I can implement something like this myself haha

Note: I don't know if I misunderstood but adding a flag just for this and another --accessibility flag doesn't sound ergonomic, one --accessibility flag is better I think

[sigmaSd]

That makes sense, I add --disable-progress-bar for now, so now the mechanism exists, the accessibility pr can just rename it, and repurpose it to its needs

[sigmaSd]

Or you can merge the accessibility pr first and I'll rebase on top of it when I can

[sigmaSd]

Btw does listing archive files needs a progress bar too?

[sigmaSd]

Here is a re-based version /~https://github.com/sigmaSd/ouch/compare/progress...sigmaSd:acess?expand=1

Whats the point of a11y_show ? Shouldn't log! always check for ACCESSIBLE?

Edit: The rebase is on this branch to see it you need to compare progress vs acess branches

[sigmaSd]

I went ahead and changed the flag to ACCESSIBLE in order to make the other pr conflicts as lest as possible

[marcospb19]

Whats the point of a11y_show ? Shouldn't log! always check for ACCESSIBLE?

So, a11y_show is meant to disable some info!, because ouch outputs too much text, and this is not accessible.

And the ACCESSIBLE global boolean is to change how the information is displayed.

I also got confused about it, but the former one hides text, and the latter reformats it.

[marcospb19]

The list command probably does not need a progress bar.

I think I'll wait for the other PR to finish before merging this one, if it takes too long, I guess this one can be merged before, not sure if it really makes a difference, tho.

[marcospb19]

Accessibility PR was merged :D, now this one is no longer blocked, if you wish to resolve the conflicts.

Done
