Subject: [PATCH] Make ZlibInStream more robust against failures

Move the checks around to avoid missing cases where we might access
memory that is no longer valid. Also avoid touching the underlying
stream implicitly (e.g. via the destructor) as it might also no
longer be valid.

A malicious server could theoretically use this for remote code
execution in the client.
