zig currently installs several source files including e.g. musl sources into /usr/lib/zig
As they are not compiled and architecture independent, they should really be in /usr/share/zig.

here's one example I followed: clang installs their .h files to /usr/lib/clang/8.0.0/include/*. These are source files that are not compiled and architecture independent.
