Research direction

Search the repository for the exact message `the resource section is not resizable` and inspect the code path used when a binary has no resource section. Determine the intended distinction between a missing resource section and a non-resizable one; done means the resulting error message accurately explains that condition, with relevant tests updated or added if the repository provides them.
