Thomas Heller 354e3d90d3 Change the zipimport implementation to accept files containing
arbitrary bytes before the actual zip compatible archive.  Zipfiles
containing comments at the end of the file are still not supported.

Add a testcase to test_zipimport, and update NEWS.

This closes sf #775637 and sf #669036.
