This makes us check the extent filenames to make sure they don't have any banned characters in them (i.e. slashes). It also makes us reject VMDK files with a footer. Since we process these files as a stream, we can't honor a footer that directs us to find the descriptor block in a location we've already processed. Thus, if a file indicates it has a footer, consider it a policy exception and unsupported.
