Subject: [PATCH] chore: bump version to 4.4.27 and add zlib-static dependency

Update version to 4.4.27 in version.txt and pkg/obioptions/version.go.

Add zlib-static package to release workflow to ensure static linking of zlib, resolving potential runtime dependency issues with the external link mode.
