Naked files generated their ids using the attributes that are common to both naked and clothed files. But naked files also support @subdirectory to magic up a subdirectory in a specified directory (@Directory) or the default INSTALLFOLDER. That subdirectory needs to factor in to the generated file id (which is then used as the component id too). Without it, generated ids for files with the same name but from different @subdirectory values would be duplicated. (Authored file ids must also continue to be supported.) Naked files now generate different file and component ids. :( Fixes wixtoolset/issues#8674

Expected Result
The files are going to different
Subdirectorys, so there should not be duplicate anything, even though the fileNames are the same. (The component ids are duplicated.)Acknowledgements
