Bug#868641: libzim-dev: Upgrade libzim to 2.0.0

[Vasudev Kamath]

No worries, thanks for the update! . Btw take over RFP for both kiwix
packages also. Emmanuel mentioned my name in RFP but I didn't get time to
take over the RFP. I'll sponsor the package. And yeah feel free to use
packaging tools of your choice in kiwix packages. :)

Sorry, that wasn't my intention. I should have been clearer in my first
message that it was just a work in progress that I put together in a
separate branch just to demonstrate that it can be built properly under
Debian (no issues with library versions, meson/ninja, etc.). It wasn't
anywhere close to acceptable for actually being used.

Awesome, that's wonderful :) I'll start working on libkiwix then.

When you are considering to change the packaging style please ask the
maintainer first,
 if he/she is willing to change their packaging style. I observed that
you removed my CDBS
 packaging effort without asking me. This is not acceptable for me!.

I've started working on libzim but it is in my machine and I will push
once I've completed my work.
