Improve const use in zlib-using code
If we define ZLIB_CONST before including zlib.h, zlib augments some
interfaces with const decorations. By doing that we can keep our own
interfaces cleaner and can remove some unconstify calls.
ZLIB_CONST was introduced in zlib 1.2.5.2 (17 Dec 2011). When
compiling with older zlib releases, you might now get compiler
warnings about discarding qualifiers.
CentOS 6 has zlib 1.2.3, but in 8e278b6576, we removed support for the
OpenSSL release in CentOS 6, so it seems ok to de-support the zlib
release in CentOS 6 as well.
