feature request: native support for xpi file extension (its just a standard .zip file) for Firefox extensions #212

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Today I found myself trying to ripgrep-all through some backups looking for some terms that I knew existed in some extensions, but I couldn't find them. I realized that rga doesn't recognize .xpi files. (the default format for firefox extensions)

Describe the solution you'd like .xpi files are just renamed .zip files so maybe it could be fairly trivial to implement the ability to just treat them as .zip files

Describe alternatives you've considered Its also understandable if not since all you need to do is rename a .xpi file extension (firefox browser extension filetype) to .zip and you can treat it as a zip file from that point onward.

I probably shouldn't have made this issue, I went and made a PR instead.
