Description

zip :: [a] -> [b] -> [(a,b)] is a very commonly used function to manipulate lists, but I can't find this util function in IterableExtensions.java.
It is good, if it can be used in xtend.

Start in IterableExtensions.java and review the existing iterable utility methods and their usage from Xtend. Define the expected zip behavior from the issue's list-pairing example, then verify that the function is available for Xtend callers and handles the relevant iterable cases.
