Issue:
[Bug]: Compression check is wrongly triggered for large files
### What happened?

Currently, the warning is triggered if **there is** a compression indicator instead of being skipped as it should:

https://github.com/NeurodataWithoutBorders/nwbinspector/blob/fc7491baecd266f873fd023e26cdbe4121dfbd79/src/nwbinspector/checks/_nwb_containers.py#L29-L41

It seems that this error was introduced here:

https://github.com/NeurodataWithoutBorders/nwbinspector/pull/513/files#r1913569891

On PR #513

- [X] To the best of your ability, have you ensured this is a bug within the code that checks the NWBFile, rather than a bug in the NWBFile reader (e.g., [PyNWB](https://github.com/NeurodataWithoutBorders/pynwb) or [MatNWB](https://github.com/NeurodataWithoutBorders/matnwb))?
