dependencies: Add system zlib method for freebsd and dragonflybsd

I've tested this on FreeBSD, and dragonfly's userland is close enough
I'm willing to call it good without testing. OpenBSD and NetBSD also
have a zlib in their base configurations, but I'm not confident enough
to enable those without testing.
