catalyst: gzip the .CONTENTS file
Other algorithms give better compression ratios, but the difference is not meaningful for a 2MiB text file. In my testing bzip2 gave a better compression ratio of 15:1 vs gzip's 11:1, but that ends up being only a size difference of 50KiB (136 vs 187) which is only an additional 2.5% savings from the uncompressed input. Choose gzip because transparent decompression is widely supported by web servers and clients. Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/630284 Signed-off-by: Matt Turner <mattst88@gentoo.org>
