  @file mp_unzip.sas
  @brief Unzips a zip file
  @details Opens the zip file and copies all the contents to another directory.
  It is not possible to retain permissions / timestamps, also the BOF marker
  is lost so it cannot extract binary files.
 
  Usage:
 
      filename mc url
        "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sasjs/core/main/all.sas";
      %inc mc;
 
      %mp_unzip(ziploc="/some/file.zip",outdir=/some/folder)
 
  More info:
  https://blogs.sas.com/content/sasdummy/2015/05/11/using-filename-zip-to-unzip-and-read-data-files-in-sas/
 
  @param [in] ziploc= Fileref or quoted full path, eg: "/path/to/file.zip"
  @param [out] outdir= (%sysfunc(pathname(work))) Directory in which to write
    the outputs (created if needed)
