IsADirectoryError when trying to download C4
I haven't tested C4 on my side so there so there may be a few bugs in the code/adjustments to make.
Here it looks like in c4.py, line 190 one of the `files_to_download` is `'/'` which is invalid.
Valid files are paths to local files or URLs to remote files.
**TLDR**:

I fail to download C4 and see a stacktrace originating in `IsADirectoryError` as an explanation for failure.

How can the problem be fixed? 

**VERBOSE**:

I use Python version 3.7 and have the following dependencies listed in my project:

```
datasets==1.2.0
apache-beam==2.26.0
```

When running the following code, where `/data/huggingface/unpacked/` contains a single unzipped `wet.paths` file manually downloaded as per the instructions for C4:

```
from datasets import load_dataset

load_dataset("c4", "en", data_dir="/data/huggingface/unpacked", beam_runner='DirectRunner')
```

I get the following stacktrace:
