Compress::Zlib

• Silence pod warnings.
  [RT# 64876]

• Removed duplicate words in pod.

IO::Compress::Base

• RT #56942: Testsuite fails when being run in parallel

• Reduce symbol import - patch from J. Nick Koston

• If the output buffer parameter passed to read has a value of
  undef, and Append mode was specified when the file was opened,
  and eof is reached, then the buffer paramer was left as undef.
  This is different from when Append isn't specified - the buffer
  parameter is set to an empty string.

• There are a couple of issues with reading a file that contains an
  empty file that is compressed.
  Create with -- touch /tmp/empty; gzip /tmp/empty.
  Issue 1 - eof is not true immediately. Have to read from the file

    to trigger eof.
  

  Issue 2 - readline incorrectly returns an empty string the first

    time it is called, and (correctly) undef thereafter.
