zlib: backport fix for heap-based buffer over-read (CVE-2022-37434)

zlib through 1.2.12 has a heap-based buffer over-read or buffer overflow
in inflate in inflate.c via a large gzip header extra field. NOTE: only
applications that call inflateGetHeader are affected. Some common
applications bundle the affected zlib source code but may be unable to
call inflateGetHeader.

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix a bug when getting a gzip header extra field with
+ inflate().
+
+If the extra field was larger than the space the user provided with
+inflateGetHeader(), and if multiple calls of inflate() delivered
+the extra header data, then there could be a buffer overflow of the
+provided space. This commit assures that provided space is not
+exceeded.
