Verify file type from file content
There seem to be a few in nuget, the issue is they only cover a very few filetypes, presumably because the authors didn't want to spend gazillions of hours typing all the data in. This one might be a good base if you wanted to fork or contribute to it: https://github.com/neilharvey/FileSignatures/
