Avoid Input From Derivation (IFD) penalty #134

Description

@keidrych

builtins.fetchTarball incurs an Input From Derivation sequential penalty

Switching builtins.fetchTarball for pkgs.fetchzip provides feature parity without the IFD penalty see https://ryantm.github.io/nixpkgs/builders/fetchers/#fetchurl

Despite the name, fetchzip is not limited to .zip files and can also be used with any tarball
