Niklas Hambüchen bda6618bb6 zlib: Add comments regarding static/shared linking.
The main explanation was taken from commit:

    e999def1 zlib: clean up static/shared distincion

The `SHARED_MODE=1` bit was originally introduced in commit:

    0bfc84b0 Cross-compile zlib for Windows

# Regarding static/shared libaries, the current behaviour is:
#
# - static=true, shared=true: builds both and moves .a to the .static output;
# in this case `pkg-config` auto detection will
# not work if the .static output is given as
# buildInputs to another package (#66461)
# - static=true, shared=false: builds .a only and leaves it in the main output
# - static=false, shared=true: builds shared only
#
# To get both `.a` and shared libraries in one output,
# you currently have to use
# static=false, shared=true
# and use
# .overrideAttrs (old: { dontDisableStatic = true; })
# This is because by default, upstream zlib ./configure builds both.
