Using C libraries in Haskell with Cabal
It kinda depends on how easy it is to build the C library, but assuming you can basically just list the files to point the C compiler at, yeah, it's not that hard to just include the C library in your project itself. The zstd library on Hackage does this (source on Github).
What are some alternatives?

zip-archive - Native Haskell library for working with zip archives
zlib - Compression and decompression in the gzip and zlib formats
snappy - Fast Haskell bindings to Google's Snappy compression library
zip-conduit - Working with zip archives via conduits.
lzip - Lzip compression / Lzlib bindings
zip - Efficient library for manipulating zip archives
binary-serialise-cbor - Binary serialisation in the CBOR format
tar - Reading, writing and manipulating ".tar" archive files.
