Can KScreenLocker and SDDM merged into one single program?
I meant that a standard of some sort is probably needed to handle both the desktop environment telling the display manager to lock the screen AND allowing said display manager to take over the screen and lock it. On Wayland at the moment I'm not aware of any screen locker that isn't part of the DE itself that works on GNOME or KDE (I only know of swaylock and waylock, and both require protocols that are only implemented by wlroots based compositors, at least according to Waylock's readme).

Is there a way to build Zig libraries to be used by Zig instead of as C libraries?
You do not need pre-compiled libraries for generated code. As an example, see zig-wayland, which generates code based on the Wayland protocol XML files during a build-step.
