Add the ability to convert fixed-layout books to CBZ format using the plugin's command line interface.

Do not produce a .kfx-zip file if only a single KFX file without DRM is found on import.

Ignore any AppleDouble files present in .kfx-zip files under MacOS. (Fixes "Unable to determine KFX container type of __MACOSX/B0000000_EBOK/._B0000000_EBOK.azw (00 05 16 07 00 02 00 00)'")
Thank you for the great work on this plugin! I have a question about the CBZ and epub files that get generated.

When I compare the output jpg files to the unpacked resources from the KFX (-u in the CLI), I notice more jpg compression artifacts and some distortion with images (like some lines looking more jagged and less vibrant when compared to the unpacked resources tiles or a full sized screenshot from the Kindle app). Is the output jpg quality compression something that could be adjusted higher or losslessly? Or is the quality being affected by the ePub 3 conversion happening in the middle? If so, would there be a way to lessen the compression that seems to be occurring on images in the epub conversion? It's just something that I've noticed when I zoom in on things while reading. Thank you!
