This is a working version of the zlib version 1.2.4 but there are still some
rough edges that needs to be improved.  Specifically:

 - zlib now uses off_t instead of long.  So far I am fairly confident that
   this *should* work just fine but still needs further testing, etc.

 - The change from long to off_t requires users to rebuild all their binaries
   if linked with zlib.  (Should we avoid the shared library version bump?)

 - We diveraged a little bit from official zlib's definition for their 64-bit
   variants.  Technically we should have all these stuff without the 64 prefix
   since our off_t is 64 bit from the day 0 of FreeBSD 2.x, which is derived
   from 4.4BSD-Lite, while version 7.21 92/05/13 14:44:26 mckusick bumped
   it to 64-bit.  Currently this is done with some direct changes in zlib.h
   and hack in zconf.h.

 - We need to import zlib's versioned symbols, perhaps the same of Linux's
   one provided with the distribution, or our own (since we bumped shared
   library version).
