Imports an offline collection zip file (experimental).
Offline collectors are preconfigure Velociraptor binaries that collect specific artifacts into a zip file.
This function allows such a collection to be imported into the GUI as if it was collected by the server. The collection will be loaded into a client’s filestore directory.
Since there is no actual client id associated with the offline collection (there is no Velociraptor client running on the endpoint) we generate a random client ID for a new client.
If you specify an existing client id, the collection will be uploaded into that client.
NOTE: Combine this function with the hunt_add() function to add a manual offline collection to an ongoing hunt.
