- Add warnings when compiling with assembler code

Changes in 1.2.9 (31 Dec 2016)
- Fix contrib/minizip to permit unzipping with desktop API [Zouzou]
- Improve contrib/blast to return unused bytes
- Assure that gzoffset() is correct when appending
- Improve compress() and uncompress() to support large lengths
- Fix bug in test/example.c where error code not saved
- Remedy Coverity warning [Randers-Pehrson]
- Improve speed of gzprintf() in transparent mode
- Fix inflateInit2() bug when windowBits is 16 or 32
- Change DEBUG macro to ZLIB_DEBUG
- Avoid uninitialized access by gzclose_w()
- Allow building zlib outside of the source directory
- Fix bug that accepted invalid zlib header when windowBits is zero
- Fix gzseek() problem on MinGW due to buggy _lseeki64 there
- Loop on write() calls in gzwrite.c in case of non-blocking I/O
- Add --warn (-w) option to ./configure for more compiler warnings
- Reject a window size of 256 bytes if not using the zlib wrapper
- Fix bug when level 0 used with Z_HUFFMAN or Z_RLE
- Add --debug (-d) option to ./configure to define ZLIB_DEBUG
- Fix bugs in creating a very large gzip header
- Add uncompress2() function, which returns the input size used

- Dramatically speed up deflation for level 0 (storing)
- Add gzfread(), duplicating the interface of fread()
- Add gzfwrite(), duplicating the interface of fwrite()
- Add deflateGetDictionary() function
- Use snprintf() for later versions of Microsoft C
- Fix *Init macros to use z_ prefix when requested
