DOCX file containing an embedded Excel chart object

Description:
The attached file contains an Excel chart object. On Windows, it is possible to copy the chart into a new LibreOffice document, but it is not possible to do this on Linux.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached DOCX file
2. Press ctrl+a, ctrl+c, ctrl+n, ctrl+v to copy and paste the content to a new LibreOffice Writer file

Actual Results:
Bad output, the chart is not visible. Also, a wrongly written text is shown, "1 tcejbO" instead of "Object 1".

Looking into the contents of the DOCX file, it contains this embedded Excel file:

 /word/embeddings/Microsoft_Excel_Worksheet.xlsx

Expected Results:
The chart should be visible, as it was in the original document

Reproducible: Always
