I've changed this feature a bit, so now its a Zero Install integration[4]

The reason for this feature is to cover situations:
* an activity has dependencies that weren't included to the Sugar Platform
* install/build activity specific binaries
* run non-sugar applications that are not well packaged to GNU/Linux distributions
