Full-size camera photos now work in your photos folder

A correction to "Builders: drop photos and sounds onto your Mongoose drive" (message 1207). The photos folder on your drive now takes pictures up to 50 MB, not 4 MB, so you can copy photos straight off a phone or camera. Before, Windows said "The specified network name is no longer available" or that the file was locked, and nothing arrived.
A large picture is kept at the size the Photos tab in the web client sends: 1568 pixels on its longest side, turned the right way up. Smaller pictures and GIFs are kept as they are.
A folder you make inside photos now stays while it is empty. Before, it vanished a few seconds after you named it, before you could copy anything in. When you copy pictures into it, they still become one album, and the folder goes away once the game has taken them. The same goes for folders in sounds.
