That might change with zlib-ng... expecting compressed data to match is
probably not a reasonable expectation, as there are several that can
generate slightly different output at the same level but with other
different options (such as multiple threads).

I think it's probably more reasonable to say the compressed file should
pass a test by the compressor (e.g. gzip -t) and the uncompressed data
should match.
