It's obviously not the NEEDED entries because that's about shared libs.
I assume ssh-sk-helper links fine for me with ld.lld and ld.bfd because
it doesn't seem to use fide_compress/uncompress and the largeblob stuff
that both rely on zlib.

If you say adding these libz dep is the correct thing to do anyway, I'm
ok with that.
