On macOS all file descriptors for a particular file in /dev/fd
share the same file offset, that is open("/dev/fd/9", "r") behaves
more like dup(9) than a regular open.

This causes problems when a user tries to run "/dev/fd/9" as a script
because zipimport changes the file offset to try to read a zipfile
directory. Therefore change zipimport to reset the file offset after
trying to read the zipfile directory.
(cherry picked from commit d08fb25)
