[PATCH] lib/zlib: drop EQUAL macro

[Yury Norov <yury.norov@gmail.com>]

The macro is pre-historic, and only exists to help those readers who
don't know what memcmp() returns if memory areas differ. This is pretty
well documented, so the macro looks excessive.

Now that the only user of the macro depends on DEBUG_ZLIB config, GCC
warns about unused macro if the library is built with W=2 against
defconfig. So drop it for good.
