Summary0006738: Remove dependencies on UnZip32.dll
DescriptionCurrently we use UnZip32.dll for unzipping files, there are several disadvantages:

1. It is not unicode ready
2. We need UnZip32.dll in our installation folder
3. it is not a solution for the future cross-platform version

We should replace the functionality by using ZLib unit that is part of Delphi's RTL and eliminates all the mentioned disadvantages (unicode ready, no DLL needed, cross-platform promise)

in addition there are some very nice components using ZLib like KAZip ( http://www.vclcomponents.com/Delphi/Compression__Encryption/KAZip-info.html ) which we could use in the future for more complex ZIP/UNZIP operations.
