Fix exports containing zero byte files after import from specific ZIP…
… archives Closes #27540. As it turns out, some ZIP archivers (like 7zip) will decide to add fake entries for directories, and some (like windows zipfolders) won't. The "directory" entries aren't really properly supported using any actual data or attributes, they're detected by sharpcompress basically by heuristics: https://github.com/adamhathcock/sharpcompress/blob/ab5535eba365ec8fae58f92d53763ddf2dbf45af/src/SharpCompress/Common/Zip/Headers/ZipFileEntry.cs#L19-L31 When importing into realm we have thus far presumed that these directory entries will not be a thing. Having them be a thing breaks multiple things, like: - When importing from ZIPs with separate directory entries, a separate `RealmFile` is created for a directory entry even though it doesn't represent a real file - As a result, when re-exporting a model with files imported from such an archive, a zero-byte file would be created because to the database it looks like it was originally a zero-byte file. If you want to have fun, google "zip empty directories". You'll see a whole gamut of languages, libraries, and developers stepping on this rake. Yet another episode of underspecced mistakes from decades ago that were somebody's "good idea" but continue to wreak havoc forevermore because now there are two competing conventions you can't just pick one.
