The convention of passing 0 to inflateInit2() to autodetect the window
size is not supported in really old versions of zlib. The only
downside with simply passing in the maximum value (15) is potential
additional memory buffer allocations, but it is a drop in the bucket
for NASM.

SPDX is an international standard for documenting software license
requirements. Remove the existing headers and replace with a brief
SPDX preamble.
See: https://spdx.dev/use/specifications/
The script used to convert the files is added to "tools", and the
file header templates in headers/ are updated.

The very simple compression scheme used for the builtin macro sets no
longer works adequately, and in fact it generates incorrect output
now.
Drop the whole idea of an ad hoc compression scheme and just use
zlib. For the case where there is no system zlib available, include a
(subset of) the zlib distribution. The configure script can be set to
force this included zlib if desired (e.g. for testing.)
Unfortunately this turned out to be a pretty painful can of worms in
terms of complexity. On the other hand having zlib available might be
useful at some point in the future.
