Changing file attributes inside extfs (e.g. zip archive) silently fails

Description

  1. Open a ZIP archive by pressing Enter on it in the left pane. In my case, the file had VSIX extension (don't think it matters)
  2. Pick some file, e.g. a file that's not executable because of https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/4628 but should be
  3. Try making it executable with either File -> Chown or File -> Advanced chown

I was hoping this would succeed (this could be considered an FR), but if it's not implemented, I expected to see an error message. Instead, nothing happens.

This is related to https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/4628 . See there for some more debug info.
