---
Providing a `Flow` for decompressing gzip streams should be useful outside the HTTP context. For reading gzipped files, for example.
I propose moving the non-HTTP-related gzip and deflate compression and decompression classes from akka-http-experimental to akka-stream.
If that sounds OK, I can open a PR with the necessary changes.

Research direction
Start by locating the non-HTTP gzip and deflate compression and decompression classes in akka-http-experimental, then review their dependencies and the akka-stream module boundaries. Done means the relevant Flows are available from akka-stream while remaining independent of HTTP.
