This fixes problems in testing HDF5 on systems that have a system-wide libz that is too old for other packages that ship Julia's libz but HDF5 gets loaded first, and so loads the system libz. So while HDF5 itself was compiled against a very old libz and is thus very compatible, it can cause problems for other packages.

This will be solved in Julia 1.3+ where the dependency of HDF5 upon Zlib will be automatically encoded in the JLL package dependency graph, but this is an important fix for 1.2-.
