0 files processed when selecting OpenZFS volume/directory on macOS #106

I'm running into a strange issue:

With QuickHash 3.3.1 on macOS (Monterey), when selecting a directory that's part of an OpenZFS (https://openzfsonosx.org/) volume in the "FileS" tab, the scan completes immediately with 0 files processed. I've also tried with a subdirectory within the Volume and the same thing happens. However, if I select a single file on the "File" tab, everything works as expected. I've also verified that the QuickHash process has required permissions to read the folder.

Previously, I've also tried QuickHash on a non-ZFS volume/directory (HFS+ formatted) on the same machine and it worked as expected.

Well that is indeed a little odd. That said, I'd not head of OpenZFS either. I'm assuming this is not the default for OSX, which uses APFS of course. QH is coded to use the native filesystem calls. So if OpenZFS is applying some kind of abstraction or interpretation, that might be the issue. But I'm sorry to say I cant really test this right now. I am assuming no answer presented itself between you posting this, and now?
