This pull request removed the vendored zig libraries used as part of the zig build system to build rcloud, and replaces them with updated versions that make use of the zig package manager. This reduces a maintenance burden for library maintainers and reduces the size of this repository.
The zig package manager is included with the zig compiler, but it currently has a bug which causes it to fail if it is run behind an http proxy.
This pull request also updates R package dependencies to address a compile error with libcurl and the RCurl package.
