[💡 FEATURE REQUEST]: Brotli compression support

[masterjus]

Plugin

HTTP Middleware (any)

I have an idea!

In addition to gzip, the Brotli compression algorithm is now very common. All modern browsers support it. The main advantage of the algorithm is the high compression rate.

The feature request is to add the brotli support in addition to gzip.

Hey @masterjus 👋🏻

Yeah, it's common, but this is hard to say about its performance in Go. Originally, brotly is written in C++ and has some bindings to other languages. The pure-Go algo implementation is a translation with c2go tool.

P.S: if you need this ASAP, you may implement this middleware and build RR with Velox.

It's good to have, not so important for now.
