getting ziggy with it

i looked at a few other distros:

- arch just builds it and is done with it
- guix, from what i can tell, is picking up a previous zig build of
	their own and using that to bootstrap. i am 0% certain of this
	interpretation [0].
- fedora looks promising; they certainly remove zig1.wasm before
  building; i will examine this further.
