feature: advanced file conversion #54

Feature Request

Describe the feature you'd like
The on-the-fly conversion during download works, but could be improved for greater convenience:

  • Decompress files on download (from detected compression to file w/o compression)
  • Compress files without compression on download (from file w/o compression to specified compression)
  • Refactor file conversion logic to databusclient/extensions/file_converter.py
  • Currently the conversion feels slow. I didn't test whether this is reasonable or if this could be improved. An idea would be to add the conversion (and also checksum computation/validation) directly to the download step. Now the files is first downloaded completely and then converted. Maybe this can be squashed into one step.

Why is this feature important?
