MultiGzDecoder with non-gzip bytes at end

[jinschoi]

I have a gzip json file that I did not create that I am using flate2 and serde_json to parse and transform. When I run my code over the unzipped file, everything is file. When I run it on the gzipped file, it throws an unexpected end of file error. I am trying to figure out what is going on.

My working assumption is that the file, which is a multi-member gzip file, has some extra garbage after the end of the last member; and indeed, when I use gzcat to uncompress it, it does say "trailing garbage ignored". The section about multi-member files in the introduction says "If a file contains contains non-gzip data after the gzip data, MultiGzDecoder will emit an error after decoding the gzip data. This behavior matches the gzip, gunzip, and zcat command line tools."

I would like some way of decoding such a file without an error being returned, and just having any trailing garbage be ignored. What would be the simplest way of doing this?
