Problems with the vfs addon since version 2.2.0

I had problems with the vfs addon since version 2.2.0.
So i have installed a clean  pre release KodiSetup-20200314-d6c81e39-Leia-x64
Installed the vfs addon and restarted kodi
The addon works fine, read and extract.
So i have started to add with tvdb addon to add series and films to the database.
Kodi hangs at one series, a look the to rar archive with the fiilm looks ok.
So i take a look to the sub dir and found in the rar file a *.idx file and another rar file that contains the *.sub file.
After hiding the rar file in the sub dir Kodi add the series without any problems.
A second test with extraction the rar file and deleting the rar in the sub dir works fine too.

Kodi or rather the vfs addon can't handle a rar file that contains another rar file. Kodi will hang after that and dies.

Another reason for crashing Kodi with RAR archive support is when one or more rar files are missing in the dir.

Os Win10
Kodi 18.6 Git:20200314-d6c81e3966
RAR archive support 2.2.2

Similar problem here with 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 when scanning movies everything goes just fine, but when scanning tv-shows, Kodi 18.6 krasches,
deleted the latest versions and installed 2.0.8 and everything works again
