/**
* This interface represents the Accept-Encoding request-header.
* A client includes an AcceptEncodingHeader in a Request to tell the server
* what coding schemes are acceptable in the Response e.g. compress, gzip.
*
* If an AcceptEncodingHeader is present, and if the server cannot send a
* Response which is acceptable according to the AcceptEncodingHeader, then
* the server should return a Response with a status code of NOT_ACCEPTABLE.
*
* An empty Accept-Encoding header field is permissible, it is equivalent to
* Accept-Encoding: identity
, meaning no encoding is permissible.
*
* If no Accept-Encoding header field is present, the server SHOULD assume a
* default value of identity.
*
* For Example:
* Accept-Encoding: gzip
