GzipInputFilter in Coyote/HTTP11
I'm playing with compression actually and I see that we don't have
GzipInputFilter.
Apache 2.0 mod_deflate has support for it and it could be usefull.

Well I see that support has been present and removed.
You could see in mod_deflate that GZIP input should be activated only if
Content-Encoding contains gzip.
mod_deflate also check for the 2 first bytes to contains magic, ie,
1F 8B and very that fourth byte is 00.
if deflate didn't find these, it consider the input is not compressed.

It's a rather specific need, but if you can add it why not.
(and the issue is the same as the output: to make it efficient, we would
need a "straight" recyclable array based deflate implementation)
