The Zlib library allows to deflate compressed files and to create gzip (.gz)
files. Zlib is free software and small.
An archive in ZIP format can contain several files compressed with this method,
while a .gz archive can containt only one file. It is a very popular format,
that is why I have written a package for reading files compressed within a Zip
archive.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Enable the libminizip library which will be used by multimedia/vlc:
- Use the standard MASTER_SITE for zlib.
- Replace PLIST_FILES with a separate pkg-plist.
- Instead of using the bundled "Makefile" set USE_AUTOTOOLS to generate
a new Makefile from Makefile.am that allows building libminizip.so.
Also remove MAKE_ARGS, do-install and patch-contrib-minizip-Makefile.
- Silence post-patch.
- Adjust regression-test.
