Issue body

[Impact] * Snapcraft does not work with sources of type zip. This adds support for setting a zip file as a source and allowing to force file handler to be zip (through source-type). [Test Case] 1. Create a snapcraft project with a zip source. 2. Run `snapcraft pull`. 3. zip files should have been extracted in `parts/<part-name>/src` [Regression Potential] * Very low. This is a new feature orthogonal feature. Minimal risk of breaking uri detection for sources (tests should already cover this).
