Here comes a new minor update to the zlib package.

Package changes:
* PKGBUILD cleanup
* use asm code for i686 and amd64 (might be insane ;-))
* patched Makfile to install soname links and set correct permissions of
libz.a

Note: As the zlib.net homepage seems stalled for some years now, I grab
the zlib-*.orig.tar.gz from Debain and upload it to our FTP.

Upstream changelog:
- Use old school .SUFFIXES in Makefile.in for FreeBSD compatibility
- Update comments in configure and Makefile.in for default --shared
- Fix test -z's in configure [Marquess]
- Build examplesh and minigzipsh when not testing
- Change NULL's to Z_NULL's in deflate.c and in comments in zlib.h
- Import LDFLAGS from the environment in configure
- Fix configure to populate SFLAGS with discovered CFLAGS options
- Adapt make_vms.com to the new Makefile.in [Zinser]
- Add zlib2ansi script for C++ compilation [Marquess]
- Add _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 test to make test (when applicable)
- Add AMD64 assembler code for longest match to contrib [Teterin]

- Add -WI,-rpath,. to LDFLAGS for OSF 1 V4*
- Set LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH for SGI IRIX shared compile
- Protect against _FILE_OFFSET_BITS being defined when compiling zlib
- Rename Makefile.in targets allstatic to static and allshared to shared

- Fix gzerror() error report on empty input file [Brown]
- Add ush casts in trees.c to avoid pedantic runtime errors
- Fix typo in zlib.h uncompress() description [Reiss]

- Add puff compile option to permit invalid distance-too-far streams
- Add puff TEST command options, ability to read piped input
- Prototype the *64 functions in zlib.h when _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64, but
  _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE not defined
- Fix Z_FULL_FLUSH to truly erase the past by resetting s->strstart
- Fix deflateSetDictionary() to use all 32K for output consistency
- Remove extraneous #define MIN_LOOKAHEAD in deflate.c (in deflate.h)
- Clear bytes after deflate lookahead to avoid use of uninitialized data
- Change a limit in inftrees.c to be more transparent to Coverity Prevent
- Update win32/zlib.def with exported symbols from zlib.h
- Correct spelling error in zlib.h [Willem]
- Allow Z_BLOCK for deflate() to force a new block
- Allow negative bits in inflatePrime() to delete existing bit buffer
