[RFC PATCH] zlib: remove historical movement of libz.so to /lib

[RFC PATCH] zlib: remove historical movement of libz.so to /lib

[Ross Burton]

Historically there's been a split between /lib for early boot and
/usr/lib for everything else, but with modern systems this split is
meaningless and incomplete. If a minimal system for early boot is
needed, it should be a full minimal system in a initramfs.
