Request: Add zlib-ng as a zlib replacement

[woot000]

Would be nice to replace zlib with zlib-ng for the performance uplift, since a lot of libraries in the suite use zlib. I'm submitting an issue instead of a pull request because I'm waiting for zlib-ng to be added as an MSYS2 package before I try adding it.

Specifically, it would be zlib-ng-compat as a drop-in replacement, correct?

For an optimized approach like mabs, it might not be necressary to wait for the MSYS2 package but to build mabs' own zlib-ng into local - WITH_RUNTIME_CPU_DETECTION could be disabled because it's for a specific system anyway. https://github.com/zlib-ng/zlib-ng/blob/develop/CMakeLists.txt

No, runtime cpu detection is as the name suggests, detect cpu (available instruction sets) at runtime, it's not for a specific system, disabling it will make it "system specific".
I'm talking about the general idea of runtime cpu detection, not sure if zlib-ng actually made it the other way around.
