Windows: update GDAL 3.4.1 for R < 4.2 #1919

Thanks! Curiously, 3.4.2 was just released. The big bump will be 3.6; 3.5 is coming soon and will have both cmake and configure, 3.6 drops configure, like GEOS 3.10 and PROJ 9. The edits to src/Makevars.win have been copied into rgdal. Unfortunately, your PR reached me just after I submitted a new version to CRAN; I'll commit to R-Forge. |

OK great I had also tested this for rgdal and rgeos on all R versions. If there is interest I can keep providing updates in the future, but it looks like the new cran policies will mandate you use the gdal provided by TK instead of rwinlib for R 4.2 and up. So we'll see. |

This is my understanding too. Typically, migration to new R minor versions seems to have been slowing, so I expect 4.1 to be in active use for another year at least. I'm not aware that TK is planning to provide CRAN MXE UCRT support for |

Thanks a lot, @jeroen !! |

@rsbivand you committed a typo on rgdal: you commented out some of the old lines, but that does not work with makefiles: a comment line that ends with a
You can remove the commented lines from the Makevars.win, or alternatively move them out of the definition of PKG_LIBS and PKG_CPPFLAGS? You can also inspect the build failure on r-universe: https://r-forge.r-universe.dev/ |

Failed on R-Forge too - fix committed as rev. 1168. |
|
@rsbivand you may also benefit from this same change in rgeos because the new gdal stack includes geos 3.10.2. |
|
Thanks, rgeos seems to build and check fine on R-forge. |

Wrap-up GDAL update for R 3.3.0 - 4.1.3 on Windows. Also adds support for zstd tiff files. This update does not affect the new R-4.2 ucrt builds which you have hardcoded separately in src/Makevars.ucrt.
