7zip bios archives suddenly unsupported #1081

I recently updated Flycast to its latest version and was surprised that non of my Dreamcast games would boot. I looked at the issue and it turns out that the bios files are no longer within 7z archives, only zip works now.

It's now big deal, but I tend to use 7z whenever possible and in this case I had to extract and repack them as zip.

Was this an intentional change by any chance?

Never mind, for some reason it started working again - pretty weird, but it's working.
