[Bug 1466439] [NEW] Ark fails to extract properly a zip file containing files with read only permission together with a sticky bit

[Prasad Murthy]

Public bug reported:

The Android application Airdroid packs multiple files in a zip file when
importing from a android device. This downloaded zip file when extracted
yields to empty files, the same zip file when extracted with other
archive managers( I tested with peazip and the command line utility
unzip) produces the files contained in the zip correctly. On initial
analysis I found the file permissions of the files in the zip having
read only permissions and with sticky bit.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download multiple files from your android device using Airdroid app
2. Extract the downloaded zip file using ark
3. Check the file size of the extracted files with that of the expected ones

Actual Results:  
Ark extracts files that are empty instead of extracting the zip correctly 

Expected Results:  
When the zip file with multiple files download with the android app Airdroid is extracted it should produce the files contained in the zip correctly.

Two of the lines I found interesting in the debug logs are below

"
Kerfuffle::Archive::create: Loading plugin "kerfuffle_libarchive"
ark(6055) Kerfuffle::ReadOnlyArchiveInterface::ReadOnlyArchiveInterface:
"
