## Summary#1562
It turns out that `hexdump` uses an invalid source distribution format
whereby the contents aren't nested in a top-level directory -- instead,
they're all just flattened at the top-level. In looking at pip's source
(51de88ca64/src/pip/_internal/utils/unpacking.py (L62)),
it only strips the top-level directory if all entries have the same
directory prefix (i.e., if it's the only thing in the directory). This
PR accommodates these "invalid" distributions.
I can't find any history on this method in `pip`. It looks like it dates
back over 15 years ago, to before `pip` was even called `pip`.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/1376.
