Send Accept-Encoding header to enable compressed responses.

To be useful, requires that the server be configured to compress application/json.

This will enable compressed responses from the API, once the
SecureDrop server sends them.

Per discussion today, more research required here to investigate any security implications of enabling response compression server-side, but keeping open.

Since the research work makes up the bulk of this task and is tracked separately in freedomofpress/securedrop#5745, and this PR is getting very dated, I'm closing it for now.
