Hello everyone,

I'd like to introduce "zig" virtual package that will be satisfied by "dev=
-lang/zig-bin" or "dev-lang/zig" package [1]=2E The main reason is that com=
pilation of "dev-lang/zig" requires a lot of RAM [2] (10 GB, which makes it=
 impossible to build on x86 arch) and depends on LLVM, which can be a big p=
roblem for people who just want to upgrade "sys-fs/ncdu" (the only reverse =
dependency) or use this programming language on systems with small amount o=
f RAM=2E

[2] https://github=2Ecom/ziglang/zig/wiki/Troubleshooting-Build-Issues#hig=
h-memory-requirements
[3] https://bugs=2Egentoo=2Eorg/823086

Thanks in advance,
Eric
