        Description copied from interface: ExtraFileImporter
        Import the file data into a file in the BASE file system. The BfsImporter will call this method once for each extra file (entries starting with 'x-') in the metadata file. The implementation is supposed to create a file in the BASE file system or link to an existing file. The returned file will be automatically linked with the child bioassay set.

        importExtraFile in interface ExtraFileImporter
        Parameters:
        filename - The filename of the file that is being imported
        locator - A locator implementation that should be used to find the file data if needed
        Returns:
        The file in the BASE file system or null if no file was created
        Throws:
        IOException - If there is a problem reading the file data
