Python package index contains packages where the sources are compressed
with something other than tar+gz. Currently stdeb fails to install these.

Attached is a preliminary patch which adds support for source archives
compressed with zip. According to the 'zipfile' module documentatation,
uncompressing a zip-archive can result in overwriting of arbitrary files, so
the file names should be filtered before extracting. Other than this,
the patch works for me.

Best,
