Wait. What you want to do is not offer the option to link with a
different implementation of decompression feature but import the code of
a certain library into our source tree?

We do not do that.

If somebody would write an implementation of zlib specifically for
ffmpeg, using av_malloc() and av_log() and all our utility API, and if
that implementation had some kind of benefit over any existing
implementation, then we would be happy to adopt it.

But dumping somebody else's code into our source tree, increasing our
maintenance burden, just to avoid linking with system zlib…

WTF? Only somebody who does not understand what FFmpeg stands for would
suggest that.
