here is my attempt for miika's reference.

it also now, uses ./ for the temp zip file, since obviously /tmp/
isn't portable to non-UNIX OS. instead i would write the temp file in
the home directory, which we should retrieve in a OS specific way
using e.g. subsurface_get_home_path().

i don't think libzip supports API for working with memory buffers.
but on the other hand temp files can be bad...
