PowerShell encoding Zip paths to use forward slash (Zip Spec) instead of backslash (Windows Style); for portable zip files - thanks to @sethjackson

# When using System.IO.Compression.ZipFile.CreateFromDirectory in PowerShell, it still uses backslashes in the zip paths
# despite this https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/migration-guide/mitigation-ziparchiveentry-fullname-path-separator
