Gzip content encoding as response from authenticator

[schreddies]

Right now, the oahtkeeper is not able to work with responses with Content-Encoding set as gzip. The idea is to add functionality into aothkeeper to be able to work with gziped responses. Pseudocode:

if res.Header.Get("Content-Encoding")=="gzip" {
    reader = gzip.NewReader(res.Body)
    body := ioutil.ReadAll(reader)
    return body
}

Until this has been added is it possible to add some kind of temporary warning message in the authenticator or in the docs, noting that "Gzip is not currently supported"? That way at least theres some kind of traceability

[vinckr]

In general, the documentation describes what is possible, not what is not possible/supported.
But if this particular is causing confusion we can add a short notice at an appropriate section, sure.
If you already have an idea where this could fit in, feel free to open a PR 🤗
