"Comment out .gz etc. AddEncoding lines in our default configuration.

Current browsers have a tendency to decompress the data when no one really
wants it to do that.  If you want the old behavior that leads to transparent
decompression by modern browsers, uncomment these lines.  But, this
shouldn't be our default." (see httpd-std.conf.in r1.32, jerenkrantz)
