When I type something like this:
git archive -o my-v2.0.zip v2.0
it is almost certainly that I want to create a zip archive, and not
a tar file.
This patch teaches git-archive to auto detect the output format from the
file name. Currently, only '.zip' is supported. If the auto detect failed,
the tar format is used as before. The auto detect is not used when the
output format is specified explicitly.

Either --output or --format option was used before, and this option is
extracted from argv[] by parse_options(). So it should be space for at
least one argument in argv.
