Talking Magic Extractor: universal extraction and firmware carving for Windows

I wanted something that could give me a more maintainable, modern take on UniExtract, while also making binwalk-style workflows practical on Windows.

That eventually turned into **Magic Extractor**: a universal extraction tool for Windows that detects unknown files using multiple engines and routes them to the right bundled extractor.

It supports common archives, installers, SFX packages, less common archivers, recursive extraction, bruteforce handler attempts, and carving embedded archives from larger binaries like firmware images.

First release is now available. Feedback, test files, edge cases, and format suggestions are welcome.
