Enable HTTP compression

[sgisbert]

Just added the bits to enable HTTP compression, in case you might consider it is worthy :)

The output was already gzip'ed from other middleware. Did you not get your output compressed?

[sgisbert]

Hi,

no, I'm afraid I'm not getting the content compressed.

This is the response headers I get with the original code on my homepage, with a size of 9,91 KB:

I didn't notice any Content-Encoding:gzip header, so I went for the compression bits, which give me the following headers:

Where the Brotli content encoding header appears, and now the transferred size is 3,65KB.

Maybe am I missing something? Which middleware is supposed to be gzipping the response?

Thanks!

Since the projects seems a bit abandoned and I would like to recover and maintain, may I ask @sgisbert to replicate this PR into the current fork? I don't want to copy paste the different code enhancements proposed in the original repository.

• https://github.com/ChustaSoft/Miniblog.Core
• Target branch: main

If at the end of this upgrade @madskristensen wants to integrate in this original repository will be more than welcomed!
