[Mono-list] Zip file support

[Gerry Shaw]

I have started a set of classes modeled after the java.util.zip package
for .NET using zlib and the zip file helper functions added by Gilles
Vollant.

Currently only viewing is working, but I've tested extracting and had it
working.  I don't anticipate any problems in completing the whole
package.  I'll be releasing standalone so that windows developers can
use it, but I think it would pretty sweet to make it built into to Mono.

Anyways for those that are interested you can grab the goods here:
http://www.organicbit.com/zip/zip.zip
(that's a lot of zip's)

For those that are interested here is a link to the modified version of
zlib.dll that I'm using.  It basically just adds the minizip stuff that
Gilles wrote.  This should port over to Linux without a problem.
