If Subversion is built without zlib then svn_stream_compressed does no
compression/decompression, but a client has no way to determine
whether zlib is in use. Possible fixes: make zlib compulsory, make
the whole compressed interface depend on SVN_HAVE_ZLIB, or make it a
runtime error to use the compressed interface if SVN_HAVE_ZLIB is not
set.
