+Zlib ships with pkg-config and cmake support, but on some operating systems

+## Add a system type dependency for zlib
+
+This allows zlib to be detected on macOS and FreeBSD without the use of
+pkg-config or cmake, neither of which are part of the base install on those
+OSes (but zlib is).
+
+A side effect of this change is that `dependency('zlib')` also works with
+cmake instead of requiring `dependency('ZLIB')`.
