Description
Keybase file won't sync. It's in a constant "encrypt and upload" loop.
The only file I changed was 1 file, but it appended a bunch of (probably conflict resolution?) suffixes and are trying to upload 4 files named like: `file_name.RvQzOpd` (with different suffixes for all 4 files).
And of course no other machine can see any files uploaded by the machine in this conflict state.
Running Windows 10 20H2 (Build 19042.1415) with Keybase versions:
```
Client: 5.9.0-20211216215858+9b33c9201f
Service: 5.9.0-20211216215858+9b33c9201f
```

Research direction
Start by examining the KBFS file-sync path for Windows and reproducing the constant "encrypt and upload" loop with the reported Keybase versions. Use log id c19346532c9be7acf738701c and the four suffixed files as diagnostic evidence; done means identifying the cause and confirming that changed files sync without repeated conflict suffixes.
