Summary: Zip importing; do NOT install

Initial Comment:
Here is the zip importing implementation.  Do not
install, just look at it.  A known bug is that a
sys.path item "/A/arch.zip/Lib" fails.  Patch is
against 2.2a3.

I wonder if it would be better to do more of the work at the
C level, rather than passing everything up to Python.  The
tuples that describe the ZIP file contents could be C
structs and the actual retrieval could be written in C.  I
suspect it is worthwhile, since our goal is to make imports
faster.
