Assure that deflateParams() will not switch functions mid-block.

This alters the specification in zlib.h, so that deflateParams()
will not change any parameters if there is not enough output space
in the event that a block is emitted in order to allow switching
the compression function.

-   in the uncompressed data, the deflate stream should first be flushed with
-   Z_BLOCK or another flush parameter, and deflate() called until
-   strm.avail_out is not zero, before the call of deflateParams().  Then no
-   more input data should be provided before the deflateParams() call.  If this
-   is done, the old level and strategy will be applied to the data compressed
-   before deflateParams(), and the new level and strategy will be applied to
-   the the data compressed after deflateParams().
-
-     deflateParams returns Z_OK if success, Z_STREAM_ERROR if the source stream
+   not have enough output space to complete, then the parameter change will not
+   take effect.  In this case, deflateParams() can be called again with the
+   same parameters and more output space to try again.
+
+     In order to assure a change in the parameters on the first try, the
+   deflate stream should be flushed using deflate() with Z_BLOCK or other flush
+   request until strm.avail_out is not zero, before calling deflateParams().
+   Then no more input data should be provided before the deflateParams() call.

+     deflateParams returns Z_OK on success, Z_STREAM_ERROR if the source stream
    state was inconsistent or if a parameter was invalid, or Z_BUF_ERROR if
-   there was not enough output space to complete the compression before the
-   parameters were changed.  Note that in the case of a Z_BUF_ERROR, the
