Reading https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/6306, it seems we
should just adjust the GTK+ gdk pkg-config file to 'Requires' zlib
instead of adding a '-lz' ?  As zlib provides pkg-config file that'd be
the proper fix.

Could someone contribute such a patch upstream (and carry it in Guix in
the meantime?)
