Like, it doesn't have to be a tarball?

Currently I just let the shutil module (which stands for "shell utils", but the almost nothing in the module has to do with the shell, so...) handle extracting the archive, so if shutil can handle it, Archive Extractor can. The whole reason I made this was so that I could have a simple tool for extracting files from a tar file since windows doesn't natively support it, so I wasn't to focused on making this a fancy tool.
