I've took a crack to add minizip support to the Windows buildslaves and
switch this new driver on, I hope the next build will compile this driver in
the plugins section.

However the desired compilation flags of minizip are not so trivial to me,
is the ZIP64 support enabled by default, should I define further variables?
Do we expect to compile minizip as a library or a dll package? The latter
seems to be controlled by ZEXPORT which is not defined properly on Windows.
(zlib is using explicit definition of the exported functions by using a .def
file and not by __declspec(dllexport))

Do we have auto-tests included along with this driver in order to make sure
the compilation is working?

Best regards,
