Seems like a waste of resources compared to a plain sendfile when
doing the compression on build like in PDM. We naturally do not
have any usage numbers, but there are some bigger known deployments,
so this might see some usage.

But is that always correct? Anyhow, for now using something like
DecompressionStream + manually setting the content type in the
header (which just improves performance) would be enough IMO.
