zlib-ng is mostly about speed and efficiency, however it achieves its
goal by sometimes sacrificing the compression ratio which then affects
Xamarin.Android, the main LibZipSharp consumer.

Add a new zlib submodule and switch to using zlib by default instead
of zlib-ng, while retaining zlib-ng as an option.

`zlib-ng` is mostly about speed and efficiency, however it achieves its
goal by sometimes sacrificing the compression ratio which then affects
Xamarin.Android, the main LibZipSharp consumer.

Add a new `zlib` submodule and switch to using `zlib` by default instead
of `zlib-ng`, while retaining `zlib-ng` as an option.
