Add github.com/klauspost/compress/gzhttp wrapper around the request
handler. With MinSize(1024), responses ≥ 1 KB get gzip-encoded when
the client advertises Accept-Encoding: gzip; smaller bodies + 304
Not Modified pass through unchanged.
The wrapper auto-appends Vary: Accept-Encoding (compatible with the
existing Vary: Accept on directory.go's content-negotiated path).
Live-tested against zddc-server -root /tmp/empty:
GET / w/ Accept-Encoding: gzip → 20.9 KB compressed (was 80.9 KB
uncompressed). 74% reduction.
Decompresses cleanly back to the original bytes.
Helps every code path that bypasses Caddy: devshell pods, local dev
binaries, tests, anywhere zddc-server is hit directly. Production
behind Caddy already had compression at the proxy layer; this just
makes the Go server self-sufficient.
Tests in cmd/zddc-server/main_test.go cover:
- large body + Accept-Encoding → compressed + Vary header
- small body → not compressed (under MinSize)
- no Accept-Encoding header → plain bytes
