ASDF imposes a file type for lisp sources

[Juanjo Garcia-Ripoll]

In a system such as

(defsystem :foo
  :component ((:file "foo")))

where foo.lsp exists and is recognized by the lisp implementation as a valid source file (ECL), ASDF imposes the file extension "lisp". Furthermore, adding our own extension

(defsystem :foo
  :component ((:file "foo.lsp")))

does not work.

Please note that I am aware of the comment in http://common-lisp.net/project/asdf/manual.html#header3-114 regarding the use of a system with an EQL specializer. I just want to reflect that ASDF does not behave homogeneously with how COMPILE-FILE and LOAD do on the same implementation.

I attach a patch that allows specifying a different file type

(defsystem :foo
  :component ((:file "foo" :type "lsp")))

while preserving the original source-file-type method.
