Add support for running the tests via valgrind
Add some makefile targets, which use valgrind's memcheck tool to run the tests, in order to help diagnose memory problems in the library. In addition, we enable the '--leak-check' option to report on any memory leaks. However, unlike the other memory problems reported by memcheck, memory leak reports do not result in an error exit from valgrind. (So memory leaks are reported on stderr, but don't halt the test run.) A suppressions file (tests.supp) is included since libz triggers some false positives.
