xz archive issue: format specified by source filename is not an archive format

Hi!

I stumbled upon an issue with .xz archives. I tried to install multiping from https://github.com/babs/multiping ending up in this error:

➜  stew browse babs/multiping

Thanks for reporting! This seems to be an issue with the underlying archiver library that is used to unarchive xz files. The version I'm using is mholt/archiver v3, but v3 is no longer maintained. The author did create a new package https://github.com/mholt/archives but it has a pretty big breaking change to the API so I want to wait until it's 1.0 before attempting to see if migrating over to it will fix this issue. I'm going to leave this issue open for now.
