This allows -httpd to make better use of time it spends waiting
on git-cat-file to respond.  It allows us to deal with
high-latency HDD storage without a client monopolizing the event
loop.  Even on a mid-range consumer-grade SSD, this seems to
give a 10+% speed improvement for HTTP responses requiring many
blobs, including all /T/, /t/, and /t.mbox.gz endpoints.

This only benefits indexed inboxes (both v1 and v2); I'm not
sure if anybody still uses unindexed v1 inboxes nowadays.

A new xt/httpd-async-stream.t maintainer test ensures checksums
for responses before and after this series match exactly as
before.

This builds off a branch I started several months ago (but never
published here) to integrate gzip responses into our codebase
and remove our optional dependency on Plack::Middleware::Deflater.

We already gzip a bunch of things independent of
Plack::Middleware::Deflater: manifest.js.gz, altid SQLite3 dumps
and all the *.mbox.gz endpoints; so being able to use gzip on
all of our responses without an extra dependency seemed logical.

Being able to consistently use our GzipFilter API to perform
buffering via ->zmore made it significantly easier to reason
about small response chunks for ghost messages interspersed with
large ones when streaming /$INBOX/$MSGID/t/ endpoints.

I'm not yet maximizing use of ->zmore for all buffering of HTTP
responses, yet; measurements need to happen, first.  That may
happen in the 1.7 time frame.  In particular, we would need to
ensure the Perl method dispatch and DSO overhead to Zlib.so and
libz.so of making many ->zmore calls doesn't cause performance
regressions compared to the current `.=' use and calling
->zmore/->translate fewer times.

Instead of gzipping some (mbox.gz, manifest.js.gz) responses and
leaving P::M::D to do the rest, we gzip everything ourselves,
now, so P::M::D is redundant.
