Store live photos as their image and their video (closes #107)
check / check (push) Successful in 41s

A live photo, which Ente stores as one ZIP, is unpacked as it downloads
into its image and its video, each `<fileID>.<ext>` with its extension
from the ZIP, beside `<fileID>.livephoto.json`, which names the two.
Both are checked against the recorded hash and renamed into place only
when both are complete. A ZIP with a second image or video, or whose
parts come to more than 20 times its size plus 16 MiB, is refused. The
backup and the content cache count a live photo as stored only with both
files, album folders link both, `quak get` writes both, and the content
result gives the video as `videoPath`. A ZIP an earlier version stored
is replaced.
