Allow directly pushing archives, in particular ZIP or JAR #428

Description

Describe the problem/challenge you have
In a popular workflow that enables a premade JAR to be accessible to Cartographer's source.image reference you actually need 2 steps:

  1. unzip the JAR file
  2. imgpkg push the contents of the JAR file.
    Several CLI implementations do this transparently, but those CLIs are serving other products primarily and do not offer a generic experience, in particular if you're not leveraging the products those CLIs are serving.

Describe the solution you'd like
imgpkg push --archive that would detect a zip, jar, or maybe even tar and push those contents.
