    net/zsync: Update 0.6.3 => 0.6.6, take maintainership

    Change in 0.6.6
    - Support and generate zsync 0.8 control files.
      - Support MD5 and SHA-224 block checksums.
      - Support SHA-256 file hash.
    - Use OpenSSL for cryptgraphic digests.

    Changes in 0.6.5
    - Fix an incompatibility between zsync and the RFC7233 rules for
      multipart/byteranges. zsync was written to RFC2046 a long time ago,
      now obsolete; responses from newer HTTP servers following the newer
      standard could cause zsync to fail to parse the response. zsync also
      was not treating failing to find the MIME boundary as a hard error and
      retrying indefinitely; changed to report this as an error.

    Changes in 0.6.4
    - Support for looking inside gzip files is deprecated; all options
      related to compressed files are correspondingly deprecated except -Z.
      Gzip files are not commonly used for large downloads as they were 20
      years ago. Supporting looking inside gzip files was a specific case
      that required a lot of extra code, and greatly increases the potential
      surface area for bugs.
      zsync supports all files that are rsyncable, without needing any
      specific support for any file format or encoding. gzip files are still
      and always be supported if they were compressed with `--rsyncable`, so
      use that when compressing if you want to allow incremental updating.
      If you are hosting gzip downloads that should be incrementally
      updatable with zsync, for compatibility with future releases you
      should ensure that the gzip file is compressed with --rsyncable and
      run zsyncmake with -Z when creating the zsync control file.
    - More tuning to fix some cases of poor performance scanning local data
      due to bad checksum distribution.

    - Switch to https in MASTER_SITES and WWW.
