currently it seems the azure-function-plugin has some super cow power and decides the deployment strategy based on:

• it's a java app, use zip deployment
• otherwise, use git deployment

It would be cool if the decision on the deployment mode could be made by the user.

Also it would be important to drop a note somewhere on these decisions as - to my knowledge - the settings in the function app must correspond to the deployment mode used.
