Creates a SpatialExperiment object from the downloaded unzipped CosMx directory for Nanostring
CosMx spatial gene expression data, and saves it as a SpatialExperiment object.
The constructor assumes the downloaded unzipped CosMx Folder has the following structure:

Mandatory files
· | — *_exprMat_file.csv
· | — *_metadata_file.csv
Optional files, by default added to the metadata() as a list of paths (will be converted to parquet):
· | —*_fov_positions_file.csv
· | — *_tx_file.csv
· | — *_polygons.csv
