[New-bugs-announce] [issue45006] Add data_offset field to ZipInfo

[Kelvin Zhang]

New submission from Kelvin Zhang <zhangxp1998 at gmail.com>:

Currently python's zipfile module does not have a way query starting offset of compressed data. This might be handy when the user wants to copy compressed data as is. Therefore I propose adding a data_offset field to zipfile.ZipInfo, which stores the offset to beginning of compressed data.
