p4-fusion fails to build on Debian via WSL

[KiaArmani]

I am currently trying to build p4-fusion using the instructions given in the README.md.

I have installed the specified versions of the required libraries as well as the latest mentioned supported version of the P4 API.

Unfortunately, I am getting errors that suggest that zlib libraries are missing which I have compiled & installed, but the error persists.

Here my output. Any help is appreciated!

Take a look at #79 (which relates to a discussion that happened in #78).

The gist is "you should be able to use a 2023.1 or newer P4API and link against p4script_cstub instead of the other stuff, which should alleviate many problems with transitive dependencies that aren't actually needed for p4-fusion."

I know the README doesn't mention this; I think it's fair to say the README is (and will continue to be) out of date until someone takes the time to properly update it.
