Update modpack from ZIP

Make it possible to update a modpack from a ZIP. I think It should just wipe current mod jars and add the ones from zip, no need to wipe other files but overwrite. Maybe have an option like "don't overwrite configs" when updating from a zip.

    It's a pain in the ass to lose every mod's setup each time Duck Life import a new version of your personal modpack. Add this functionality, please

    Sure, more hand-holding auto-updating for you noobs.

    @Team Overwolf. I hate having to reset my settings everytime with minecraft. If we could update the zip file it could slove this too.

    Please add this feature. When updating or adding mods to a modpack, it's much easier to just provide my friends the new version with a new exported .zip. The downside is they have to set up all of their client settings again because it's an entirely new profile. I don't wish to publish it (and can't because it contains mods not on curseforge), so I can't take advantage of the published auto updating.

    Losing every mods configuration each time you import a new version of your private modpack is a pain in the ass. Please add this feature

    What would the difference be from using the Import feature?
    If the modpack is public and on CurseForge you can simply use the 'Update' button for specific mods or the modpack in its entirety.
    Please add further detail if you think we didn't understand this feedback :)

    Perhaps allow the user to select some mods they do not want to be removed such as clientside mods like journey map and waila
