The tar command currently used to create the release smocker.tar.gz files isn't compressing the archives, so add the -z in there. This should reduce archive sizes from around 32mb to 10-15mb (compressing a released tarball is usually 10mb, my local builds are 15mb, so might vary depending on who runs the build) and not lead to any confusion when folks run tar -xzf smocker.tar.gz and find out that it's not compressed.

Current instructions using tar xf don't need to be updated since that will detect if the archive is compressed.
