Zip-O-Matic does not save big attributes

[TmTFx]

I generated a Moe animation from multiple images and the resulting file was an image with 420kb of attributes.That file could not be saved to zip with its attributes with Zip-O-Matic. It compressed the file without its attributes.

Does it work with the zip command? ​https://github.com/haiku/haiku/blob/13e2db960937b8115f95f970d959b70db1ae95c5/src/add-ons/tracker/zipomatic/ZipperThread.cpp#L140

Nope, zip in Terminal says:

zip warning: not enough space in extra field for attributes

Did something went bad with the patch at ​https://github.com/haikuports/haikuports/blob/master/app-arch/zip/patches/zip-3.0.patchset#L558 ?

It seems the zip format has a limit of 64KB for the extra field where the attributes are saved.

Zip-O-Matic should capture these warnings and pass them to the user. Maybe they should even be errors and not warnings in zip itself.
