It modifies the time of the directory where the zip archive is located,
e.g. visiting a file inside ~/dir/file.zip modifies the time of the
directory ~/dir/ because during unzipping in that directory, arc-mode
creates a temporary backup with the file name from ‘buffer-file-truename’.
Setting ‘buffer-file-truename’ later prevents from creating this
unnecessary backup copy that modifies the directory time.
