Autoupgrade with given module archive

Prerequisites

• I understand and accept the project's code of conduct
• I have already searched in existing features request and found no previous suggestion of this feature.

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Sometimes we need to upgrade (with autoupgrade module) PrestaShop with a custom module archive, not given by addons

This need can be justified by

• Upgrade with a specific version, not the latest one which can be buggy or doesn't fit the user's need
• Module developper who wants to correct a bug that impacts the autoupgrade process

Describe the solution you'd like

The suggested solution is to use the same logic as autoupgrade with a PS zip file : The user gives a module zip in a specific folder and expects that this archive will be used instead of calling addons

At the moment, the autoupgrade process unzips modules provided in the archive to the modules/ folder. The current solution is to provide the modules you need to upgrade into the PrestaShop archive.

But you're right, as the upgrade already has to deal with several sources of modules upgrades (distribution API, Addons API...) we could allow more sources to be added in the config (local ones...)
