Unable to use initialRealmFile with compose multiplatform resources

[H4kt]

How frequently does the bug occur?

Description

Compose multiplatform 1.6.0 introduced native support for resources
Placing a realm file into composeResources/files and then using it in a real configuration via .initialRealmFile("...") results in an error that asset file is not found

This is not an issue with realm, but merely an issue with Compose not putting the resources in platform standard locations as expected by the SDK. It isn't feasible for us to depend on Compose just for the sake of this. We can maybe hope that this will be extracted into a bare non-Compose KMP feature. Alternative you could try to file an issue for Compose to place the resource files where the normal platform frameworks are able to find them.
