update ZLS install tool

[Techatrix]

ZLS builds are now offered by https://github.com/zigtools/release-worker

Have you tested both Windows and Linux?

Only linux. I will test on Windows and report back soon.

And do you want me to make a new release of the extension once this is merged?

Yes that would be nice. The only install method doesn't provide new nightly builds and is forever stuck at ZLS 0.13.0

I believe that I have discovered an issue with the windows tar utility. Extracting a zip files that is supplied over stdin with tar -xf - will be incorrectly unzipped.

This causes the ZLS installation to only contain the zls.pdb file. All other files are missing. The Zig installation is also missing the following files:

• doc/langref.html
• LICENSE
• README.md

This can checked by running the Zig install command in VS-Code and comparing it with 7-Zip or WinRAR. I did not observe this issue when using bsdtar on linux.

System Information:

OS Name	Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
Version	10.0.19045 Build 19045

tar --version
# bsdtar 3.5.2 - libarchive 3.5.2 zlib/1.2.5.f-ipp

Edit: I just test a Windows 11 VM and the bug is still present:

OS Name	Microsoft Windows 11 Pro
Version	10.0.22631 Build 22631

tar --version
bsdtar 3.6.2 - libarchive 3.6.2 zlib/1.2.5.f-ipp liblzma/5.2.5 bz2lib/1.0.8 libzstd 1.5.4

I remember running into something similar. Does saving the archive to a file first work?

Does saving the archive to a file first work?

This works as expected.

I changed to code to temporarily save the tarball/zip on disk until it has been extracted. I tested it on windows and linux.

I also made downloadAndExtractArtifact use the async functions instead of blocking and replaced the dependency on mkdirp with vscode.workspace.fs.createDirectory.
