Before this change, the GUI server sent all static files uncompressed, meaning the browser had to download the full size of every JS, CSS, and HTML asset. After this change, the GUI server uses chi's Compress middleware at level 5, which negotiates gzip or deflate encoding based on the client's Accept-Encoding header. This reduces transfer sizes significantly for the web UI assets, for example assets/index-CvfdU_RR.js is 874 KB uncompressed, and 265 KB compressed. This is consistent with how rclone serve http, webdav, and restic already compress their responses.
