Zip/unzip internationalization PPA

PPA description

These utilities have been changed to work with international filenames in zip archives. They try to mimic Windows zip-archivers, saving and reading filenames in charset and format which is used by archivers under Windows. This is a quick hack until other archive format become more popular or majority of zip-archivers become Unicode-aware.

Unzip - applied natspec patch from http://sisyphus.ru/ru/srpm/Sisyphus/unzip/patches/0 to support decoding of filenames in archives, created with different charset on Windows. Fixes bug #580961.

Zip - applied natspec+asdos patch from
http://www.opennet.ru/tips/info/2494.shtml to support automatically encoding file names from current locale to a Windows encoding and create archives with DOS-compatible filenames by default. This is to complement changes to unzip utility.

P7zip - Use natspec library to encode/decode filenames in ZIP archives according to a charset used on Windows. Store file names in DOS-compatible format. Fixes bug #580961 in file-roller.

Libnatspec - used to detect appropriate charsets based on your locale. You need to set up your locale correctly.

Ubuntu packaging is tracked using git-buildpackage here: https://github.com/zip-i18n.
