Niklas Hambüchen aa99a263cc zlib: Properly clean up static/shared distinction 
This improves what commit

    e999def1 zlib: clean up static/shared distincion

described as "kind of a mess" and "confusing". And indeed it was confusing.

Now, the concept whether or not the .a file is moved to a split output
is controlled by a clean variable.

The defaults remain unchanged.

The new approach also finally cleanly allows building statically but NOT
using a split output, like all other autoconf-based projects in nixpkgs do
(using the `dontDisableStatic` setting).
That is important for overlays that want to enable static libs for all
packages in one go, without having to hand-patch idiosynchrasies like zlib
had until now.

Until now, if you wanted the .a in the main output, the only way was to go via
`static=false, shared=true` -- which made no sense, because you had to say
`static=false` even though you want a static lib. That is fixed now.

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:

% git remote add channels https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git

For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-19.03 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-19.03

For pull requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
