This allows us to simplify some of our existing code and make
future changes easier.
I doubt anybody goes through the trouble to have a Perl
installation without zlib support. The zlib source code is even
bundled with Perl since 5.9.3 for systems without existing zlib
development headers and libraries.
Of course, zlib is also a requirement of git, too; and we're not
going to stop using git :)

And use Exporter to make our life easier, since WwwAltId was
using a non-existent PublicInbox::WwwResponse namespace in error
paths which doesn't get noticed by `perl -c' or exercised by
tests on normal systems.

Seeing the example config linkified, some users may inevitably
try to following it in a browser with a GET request. Provide
a helpful message to inform users to use POST instead of
attempting to treat /$INBOX/$ALTID.sql.gz as a Message-Id.

We want to be able to preload that, as well as to access it
in WwwText for a config comment in the config example.

This ensures all our indexed data, including data from altid
searches (e.g. "gmane:$ARTNUM") is retrievable.
It uses a "POST" request to avoid wasting cycles when invoked by
crawlers, since it could potentially be several megabytes of
data not indexable by search engines.
