Gateway should handle http compression transparently between API consumer and API backend

Using http compression is negotiated between client and server. DP gateway handles client -> APIGW and the APIGW -> backend as 2 separate HTTP connections. So even if the backend returns an uncompressed response, the gateway compresses the reponse to the client, if that client supports compression.

What we need, is that the gateway handles compression transparently between client and backend. It should pass an uncompressed response to a client without compressing it.

The objective here is, that the API backend (and thereby the API provider) decides, if compression is actually being used on that API and not an intermediate component.
