[TC 11.50 b7] Packer about box, show incorrect Packed size: 0 bytes

[sky66]

By default, "Prefer 7-Zip plugin if installed" is enabled.
When it is disabled, if press Alt+Enter on a file in the 7Z archive. (The test archive contains only one file without any directory)
It will show an incorrect packed size: 0 bytes. The compression rate will also incorrectly display as 100%

When "Prefer 7-Zip plugin if installed" is enabled, the Packed size and Compression rate displayed by Total7zip are correct.
But the Method cannot be shown, however, this should not be an issue with the TC itself.

Indeed the internal unpacker doesn't currently retrieve the packed size because it is only available when the archive is NOT solid. I will add it, and sho "?" for solid archives.

26.11.24 Fixed: Properties of file in 7-Zip archive: Show compressed size in non-solid archives, ? instead of 0 in solid archives (32/64)

This issue seems to have improved in 11.50b8.
Although there are some solid archives created with 7z2408-x64 that display the correct Packed size, I'm not sure why.
But it's a good thing that it can display now. Thank you.

I think this happens when you modify a file in such an archive (e.g. edit with F4 and re-pack). Then that file is packed separately from the other files. Total Commander just shows what the 7zip dll returns.
