Simplify and fix error handling for most cases.
Many functions used a local variable called return_error, which was initialized to zero. If an error occurred, it was set to true. Most of the code paths checked were only executed if return_error was false. goto is clearer. The code also seemed to be written under the curious assumption that calling Py_DECREF() on a local variable would assign the variable to NULL. As a result, more of the error-exit code paths returned an object that had a reference count of zero instead of just returning NULL. Fixed the code to explicitly assign NULL after the DECREF. A bit more reformatting, but not much. XXX Need a much better test suite for zlib, since it the current tests don't exercise any of this broken code.
