Zlib replacement with optimizations for next generation systems.
The motivation for this fork came after seeing several 3rd party contributions
containing new optimizations not getting implemented into the official zlib
repository.
Mark Adler has been maintaining zlib for a very long time, and he has done a
great job and hopefully he will continue for a long time yet.
The idea of zlib-ng is not to replace zlib, but to co-exist as a drop-in
replacement with a lower threshold for code change.
===> The following configuration options are available for zlib-ng-2.3.3:
SIMD=on: Use CPU-specific optimizations
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
archivers/zlib-ng: Update 2.3.1 => 2.3.2
Changelog:
This hotfix release fixes bug #2029.
This bug caused CRC32 failures for data that ended on certain byte
counts above 256KB.

archivers/{minizip{,-ng},zlib-ng}: take maintainership
While here remove GNU_CONFIGURE_MANPREFIX and pet portclippy.

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.

archivers/minizip*: Add minizip-ng and zlib-ng and create USES=minizip
Import minizip-ng and zlib-ng
Minizip was originally developed in 1998. It was first included in the zlib
distribution as an additional code contribution starting in zlib 1.1.2. Since
that time, it has been continually improved upon and contributed to by many
people.
