[TIMOB-17144] Native module zip not automatically extracting in project folder

problem

I'm seeing this same issue as in TIMOB-15714, but when putting the module zip in the local project root folder. The zip file is being ignored and I'm getting an error like this:

[DEBUG] Looking for Titanium module id=ti.mw.todo version=1.0.0 platform=commonjs deploy-type=development
[WARN]  Could not find Titanium module id=ti.mw.todo version=1.0.0 platform=commonjs deploy-type=development
[ERROR] Could not find all required Titanium Modules:
[ERROR]    id: ti.mw.todo	 version: 1.0.0	 platform: commonjs	 deploy-type: development

If I move the zipped module to the global modules folder, ~/Library/Application Support/Titanium in my case, the module extracts automatically on build and works just fine.

expected

A zipped native module in my project folder should automatically extract when I execute ti build

actual

The native module is not extracted and I encounter a build error

test

This case is the same as the case in TIMOB-15714, with only the location of the native module changed.

create an app in either Studio or CLI

add any module to tiapp.xml

place module zip file in the newly created project's folder

build app for any platform/target

encounter the error listed in the problem section
