Essentially, Wine is trying to re-implement enough of Windows from scratch so that it can run all those Windows applications without actually needing Windows.

DESCRIPTION
Extract Helium (formely Carbon) backups.
Helium backups are normal adb backups created with boolean COMPRESS_FULL_BACKUPS = false, and the 18th byte
of the backup changed from 0 to 1 (I guess this is done by Helium intentionally).
Android should be able to restore helium backups properly, considering that first you change 18th byte from 1 to 0.
The files inside uncompressed backups don't necessarily match directly the ones in compressed format (even after decompression).
