[Haikuporter] not deal properly with zip files

Description
Haikuport don't respect the extraction rules with zip files like anothers types (tar, bz2)
for example:
using haikuporter -'anycommand' myport-4.5 should read the
myport-4.5.bep file and should generate a myport-4.5 folder inside /work one.
It's done with any extension, but not with zip files. It extracts and apply the patch, but couldn't find the dir extracted for build instructions.
As proof, try glpng port that already into the tree
and now for tinyxml

This is because whoever made the zip files didn't put them in a subdirectory with the same name and then zip them. In general you'll find .tar files do do this, while most .zip source packages seem to have been generated on windows and their creators don't seem to care about making the subdirs. Closing this as invalid, garbage in garbage out as they say.
