After zipping a folder, it reports that it is "created in a public folder" (but it is not in such a folder)

[Omemanti]

After creating a zip file, it reports in properties as well in the notification email that the zipfile was created in a public folder
After checking, it does not seem to be in a public or shared folder.

Steps to reproduce

1. User zipper in nextcloud to compress a folder
2. It reports in properties as well in the notification email that the zipfile was created in a public folder

Expected behaviour

When created in a non public folder, the notification should not tell that it was done so.

Also, I don't have proof that it is in a public folder, but for the sake of certainty, it should be checked if it definitely is not creating a public folder. (in case i'm not proficient enough to find if it is creating a public folder.)

Actual behaviour

It sends out a notification via email that the file was created in a public folder.

The issue is not specific to the zipper it seems, as I am also getting an email "Cospend/[project_name]_daily_2024-12-25.csv was created in a public folder" since upgrading to NC 30, even though this is not a public folder.

The issue is that the activity is not aware of the user zipping the file, as we run the zip file creation in a cron job, we need to set the user manually.

I pushed a fix in #304 Testing is very welcome
