setup fdist option for files distribution (unzipped files)

This is the equivalent of `python setup.py bdist` and unzipping the outputted file. If no --dest-path is specified it dumps the files in the same folder as the .zip.

It is used for symlinking of the latest addon in production computers without having to deal with .zip files.
