Implements gzip output compression to speed up load times and does a check to see if browsers are incorrectly saying that they do not support GZIP when they actually do. 

== Description ==

This plugin implements gzip output compression to speed up load times.

The plugin also does a check to see if browsers are incorrectly saying that they do not support GZIP when they actually do. This can speed up load times for a significant portion of users.

`For requests with missing or mangled Accept-Encoding headers, inspect the User-Agent to identify browsers that should understand gzip.
* Test their ability to decompress gzip.
* If successful, send them gzipped content!`
