A minor documentation fix, this section referred to the wheel as a `.tar.gz` file while it isn't – it is fairly known that it is a `.zip` file. I added the correct file extension for the SDist in the point above it, just for the sake of clarity.

Hi, this PR is a minor documentation fix – I was just reading through the section "Including/excluding files in the SDist" in the Classic Packaging guide and this point caught my eye: this section talks about the procedure used to install a package via the invocation of the
pip install .command: it incorrectly refers to the wheel as being a.tar.gzfile while it isn't – it is fairly and commonly known that it is a.zipfile.I have mentioned the correct file extension for the wheel and added a note about the SDist being in a sentence above, correctly reporting so that it can be known that the difference exists. I don't think that the incorrect documentation misguides anyone at this moment, but it's good to be correct considering the veracity of the guide since its inception.
