The only place where a ".pyz" file can't easily be manipulated with
the stdlib zipfile module is in writing a shebang line to the start of
the archive (i.e. adding "prefix" bytes before the start of the
zipfile data). It would be nice if the ZipFile class supported this
(because to do it properly you need access to the file object that the
ZipFile object wraps). Would it be reasonable to add methods to the
ZipFile class to read and write the prefix data?
