compat/zlib: allow use of zlib-ng as backend

The zlib-ng library is a hard fork of the old and venerable zlib
library. It describes itself as zlib replacement with optimizations for
"next generation" systems. As such, it contains several implementations
of central algorithms using for example SSE2, AVX2 and other vectorized
CPU intrinsics that supposedly speed up in- and deflating data.

And indeed, compiling Git against zlib-ng leads to a significant speedup
when reading objects. The following benchmark uses git-cat-file(1) with
`--batch --batch-all-objects` in the Git repository:

    Benchmark 1: zlib
      Time (mean ± σ):     52.085 s ±  0.141 s    [User: 51.500 s, System: 0.456 s]
      Range (min … max):   52.004 s … 52.335 s    5 runs

    Benchmark 2: zlib-ng
      Time (mean ± σ):     40.324 s ±  0.134 s    [User: 39.731 s, System: 0.490 s]
      Range (min … max):   40.135 s … 40.484 s    5 runs

    Summary
      zlib-ng ran
        1.29 ± 0.01 times faster than zlib

So we're looking at a ~25% speedup compared to zlib. This is of course
an extreme example, as it makes us read through all objects in the
repository. But regardless, it should be possible to see some sort of
speedup in most commands that end up accessing the object database.

The zlib-ng library provides a compatibility layer that makes it a
proper drop-in replacement for zlib: nothing needs to change in the
build system to support it. Unfortunately though, this mode isn't easy
to use on most systems because distributions do not allow you to install
zlib-ng in that way, as that would mean that the zlib library would be
globally replaced. Instead, many distributions provide a package that
installs zlib-ng without the compatibility layer. This version does
provide effectively the same APIs like zlib does, but all of the symbols
are prefixed with `zng_` to avoid symbol collisions.

Implement a new build option that allows us to link against zlib-ng
directly. If set, we redefine zlib symbols so that we use the `zng_`
prefixed versions thereof provided by that library. Like this, it
becomes possible to install both zlib and zlib-ng (without the compat
layer) and then pick whichever library one wants to link against for
Git.
