  Description     : Multi functional app to find duplicates, empty folders,
similar images etc

There is a GUI and a cli package:
- czkawka-gui
- czkawka-cli

Czkawka (tch-kav-ka, hiccup) is a simple, fast and free app to remove
unnecessary files from your computer.

Features:
- Written in memory safe Rust
- Amazingly fast - due to using more or less advanced algorithms and
  multithreading
- Free, Open Source without ads
- Multiplatform - works on Linux, Windows and macOS
- Cache support - second and further scans should be a lot faster than
  the first one
- CLI frontend - for easy automation
- GUI frontend - uses modern GTK 3 and looks similar to FSlint
- Rich search option - allows setting absolute included and excluded
  directories, set of allowed file extensions or excluded items with
  the * wildcard
- Multiple tools to use:
  - Duplicates - Finds duplicates basing on file name, size, hash,
    first 1 MB of hash
  - Empty Folders - Finds empty folders with the help of an advanced
    algorithm
  - Big Files - Finds the provided number of the biggest files in
    given location
  - Empty Files - Looks for empty files across the drive
  - Temporary Files - Finds temporary files
  - Similar Images - Finds images which are not exactly the same
    (different resolution, watermarks)
  - Zeroed Files - Finds files which are filled with zeros (usually
    corrupted)
  - Same Music - Searches for music with same artist, album etc.
  - Invalid Symbolic Links - Shows symbolic links which points to
    non-existent files/directories
  - Broken Files - Finds files with an invalid extension or that are
    corrupted


This should close RFP: #1006181

fslint which did a similar job was removed from bullseye because it required
python2. This is a alternative/replacement.

Should be maintained by rust team.
