Description
Steam Client Beta seems to be rolling out a new format again.

Steps to Reproduce the behavior

>>> from steam.utils.appcache import parse_appinfo
>>> header, apps = parse_appinfo(open(r"C:\Users\Winter\Desktop\WIP\appinfo.vdf", "rb"))

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "D:\Python311_64\Lib\site-packages\steam\utils\appcache.py", line 73, in parse_appinfo
    raise SyntaxError("Invalid magic, got %s" % repr(magic))
SyntaxError: Invalid magic, got b')DV\x07'

Example appinfo.vdf, like last time:
appinfo.zip
