libdeflate, cloudflare's zlib, versioned containers

[brainstorm]

• Introduce libdeflate to both containers.
• Introduce cloudflare's zlib for a claimed 20% performance boost.
• Be a responsible netizen, use semver for containers instead of latest ;)
• Inspired by Brent Pedersen's hts-nim: https://github.com/brentp/hts-nim/blob/master/Dockerfile.musl-hts-nim

Nice! Just for reference, some benchmarks that show the benefits for htslib: http://www.htslib.org/benchmarks/zlib.html

Thanks @juliangehring for the benchmarks pointer, interesting!

@pmarks Would you mind factoring libdeflate in while working on #207 (comment)? I'm not entirely sure if it pays off to have it optional or we could just ship it enabled by default (see benchmarks)?

I very much trust your judgement more than mine since I'm new around here, so happy to adapt ;)

Cheers!

@brainstorm cool! See my PR - I'm trying to refactor how we build htslib to give us more control of the options without relying on ./configure. libdeflater should fold into that nicely, I think that crate just needs some directives added to their build.rs.

Gotcha, I'll leave this PR only with the docker changes then, good work Patrick!
