Add or Replace Single Client Code Distribution

Add or replace client code in Vault by uploading a ZIP file of the client code distribution. Vault unpacks and compares the uploaded distribution with other distributions in the Vault and:

Adds the distribution if the distribution name is new.
Replaces a distribution if it has the same name and the client code filenames or contents are different.
Makes no changes if the distribution name exists and the code is the same.
