[Patch v3] util: add gzreadline

The idea is to provide a more or less drop in replacement for readline
to read from zlib/gzip streams. Take the opportunity to replace
malloc with talloc.

This corrects one nasty bug, and a few style/optimization issues brought up by Tomi.
I'm not sure about the name. I agree in principle it would be good to
signal "talloc". I'm just not sure the best way to do that.
I'm also not sure about the error handling. the "real" getline sets
errno. Should we?
