/**
* A ContentEncodingHeader is used as a modifier to the "media-type". When
* present, its value indicates what additional content codings have been
* applied to the entity-body, and thus what decoding mechanisms must be
* applied in order to obtain the media-type referenced by the
* ContentTypeHeader. The ContentEncodingHeader is primarily used to allow a
* body to be compressed without losing the identity of its underlying media
* type.
*
* If multiple encodings have been applied to an entity, the ContentEncodings
* must be listed in the order in which they were applied. All content-coding
* values are case-insensitive. Clients MAY apply content encodings to the body
* in requests. A server MAY
* apply content encodings to the bodies in responses. The server MUST only
* use encodings listed in the Accept-Encoding header field in the request.
* If the server is not capable of decoding the body, or does not recognize any
* of the content-coding values, it must send a UNSUPPORTED_MEDIA_TYPE
* Response, listing acceptable encodings in an AcceptEncodingHeader.
