remove any pipe files before zip/unzipping (#1133)

* Write test to demonstrate job hang on pipes

* Remove any pipe files before zip/unzipping

- Prevents hangs when zipping, unzipping artifacts dir. If python
attempts to open a fifo pipe, it will block indefinitely until it can
read data from the pipe.

* move fifo check below symlink
