bpftool: Turn check on zlib from a phony target into a conditional error
One of bpftool's object files depends on zlib. To make sure we do not
attempt to build that object when the library is not available, commit
d66fa3c70e59 ("tools: bpftool: add feature check for zlib") introduced a
feature check to detect whether zlib is present.
This check comes as a rule for which the target ("zdep") is a
nonexistent file (phony target), which means that the Makefile always
attempts to rebuild it. It is mostly harmless. However, one side effect
is that, on running again once bpftool is already built, make considers
that "something" (the recipe for zdep) was executed, and does not print
the usual message "make: Nothing to be done for 'all'", which is a
user-friendly indicator that the build went fine.
Before, with some level of debugging information:
$ make --debug=m
[...]

File 'zdep' does not exist.

File 'all' does not exist.

After the patch:
$ make --debug=m

(Note the last line, which is not part of make's debug information.)
