Comment (by aaugustin):
The comment in `gzip.py` say: "It's not worth compressing non-OK or really
short responses."
If non-OK responses are not worth compressing because they are expected to
be short, testing their length is enough, which means the check on
`response.status_code` should be removed.
If there is another reason why non-OK responses should not be compressed,
the proper check is `200 <= response.status_code < 300`, and the reason
should be explained in a comment.
