Remove support for zlib <= 1.1
zlib 1.2 came out in 2003; earlier versions should be dead by now. Our workaround code was only preventing us from using the gzip encoding (if we decide to do so), and having some dead code linger around in torgzip.c

+ o New system requirements:
+ - We now require zlib version 1.2 or later. (Back when we started,
+ zlib 1.1 and zlib 1.0 were still found in the wild. 1.2 was released in
+ 2003. We recommend the latest version.)
