zlib-ng-compat: Add provides zlib version

Currently lib32-zlib depends on the exact zlib version, see: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/lib32-zlib/-/blob/main/PKGBUILD?ref_type=heads#L15

to get zlib-ng properly working on a system, which uses the multilib repository add zlib=$version to the provides array of it.

Hey @ptr1337, thanks a lot for the quick iteration and proposal of a fix. Seems like a pragmatic approach for the time being. Just a small feedback: Can we maybe amend the commit message body and add a bit of detail (as this description contains) as well as a back reference to the original issue? f.e. Fixes: lib32-zlib#1 (closed)

That would be very much appreciated

Hey @artafinde thank you very much for picking this up and taking care. Peter and me just noticed we didn't communicated well our conclusions in this MR. We through a reversed approach works best by relaxing the constraint on lib32-zlib. Otherwise we need to artificially rebuild zlib-ng whenever we bump zlib, which is a bit odd and the dependency constraint on lib32-zlib isn't actually required.
