* Enumerable#zip(sequence...[, iterator = Prototype.K]) -> Array
* - sequence (Object): A sequence to zip with this enumerable (there can
* be several of these if desired).
* - iterator (Function): Optional function to use to transform the tuples
* once generated; this is always the last argument provided.
*
* Zips together (think of the zip on a pair of trousers) 2+ sequences,
* providing an array of tuples.
* Each tuple contains one value per original sequence.
* Tuples can be converted to something else by applying the optional iterator on them.
* Zips together (think of the zipper on a pair of trousers) 2+ sequences,
* returning a new array of tuples. Each tuple is an array containing one
* value per original sequence. Tuples can be transformed to something else
* by applying the optional `iterator` on them.
*
* If supplied, `iterator` is called with each tuple as its only argument
* and should return the value to use in place of that tuple.
*
* ### Examples
*
* var firstNames = ['Jane', 'Nitin', 'Guy'];
* var lastNames = ['Doe', 'Patel', 'Forcier'];
* var ages = [23, 41, 17];
*
* firstNames.zip(lastNames)
* // -> [['Jane', 'Doe'], ['Nitin', 'Patel'], ['Guy', 'Forcier']]
*
* firstNames.zip(lastNames, ages)
* // -> [['Jane', 'Doe', 23], ['Nitin', 'Patel', 41], ['Guy', 'Forcier', 17]]
*
* firstNames.zip(lastNames, ages, function(tuple) {
* return tuple[0] + " " + tuple[1] + " is " + tuple[2];
* })
* // -> ['Jane Doe is 23', 'Nitin Patel is 41', 'Guy Forcier is 17']
