Fails with **note, vcpkg did not find zlib: the vcpkg-rs Vcpkg build helper can only find libraries built for the MSVC ABI.** when building for -gnu and all MSYS2 libraries are present?

Description
Downstream bug: https://github.com/nabijaczleweli/cargo-update/issues/307
See triage inside. The most obvious difference between my otherwise-equivalent config is I'm on Windows 10 and don't have vcpkg.

Research direction
Start by reading the linked downstream report and its triage, then compare the Windows 10 configuration with and without vcpkg. Use the vcpkg-rs Vcpkg build helper, the GNU target, and the available MSYS2 libraries as entry points; done means the build can find zlib without requiring vcpkg.
