[Clipart] Use 7Zip for the Open Cliparts distribution

[Bryce Harrington]

The considerations that need to be made are:

   * Can this type of file be generated on Linux (since we do our
     packaging via Linux)
   * Is this format sufficiently widespread to be of actual use?
     (Too many options can make things more confusing for users)
