Description

Odo already supports gzip and bzip2 files using the gzip and bz2 modules. It's natural to extend this to include .zip files as well, via the zipfile module.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing gzip and bzip2 support in the codebase. Use the zipfile module to implement a similar pattern for ZIP files. Look for handlers in the odo library that register file extensions and compression types.
