How are multi-line header field values to be handled with z=? Do we encode the fold (by adding =0D=0A for example) or do we unfold the header field value first and then add that result to z=? Is preserving the fold important at all?

I treat a copy as just that -- a copy. There is some motivation for preserving the folding insofar as with simple canonicalization the folding is important; so if you're trying to figure out why simple broke, that would be an important (and probably common)
clue.

It might be worthwhile clarifying that in the description.
