ZipUpload of non-ZIP files results in confusing error message
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MGNLDMS-226
                 URL: http://jira.magnolia-cms.com/browse/MGNLDMS-226
             Project: Magnolia DMS Module
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: reproducable on demoauthor.magnolia-cms.com
            Reporter: Richard Unger
            Assignee: Philipp Bärfuss
         Attachments: ZipUpload_Error.png


If a non-ZIP file is uploaded to DMS, the user is presented with a rather 
generic java-exception error message as javascript alert pop-up:

"java.io.IOException: negative seek offset"

(see attached screenshot)


This is confusing to editors (i.e. any person who would upload a non-ZIP file 
in the ZipUpload dialog will also not understand the current error message)

Preferred Solution:

Show an error-message of the form:

"The file you uploaded ("samplenonzipfile.pdf") could not be read as a ZIP 
file. Please check your file."
