feat: Support gzip compressed files #8

Closed trevorld closed 3 years ago

trevorld commented 3 years ago

Adds support for directly importing/exporting gzip compressed font files.
gzip compressed yaff/hex/bdf font files seem roughly 8 times smaller than uncompressed font files.

Thanks, this is a useful feature!

I've noticed some bugs in the handling of container formats which impact this, so I've pulled your commit into a new branch topic-compressed-streams and will apply the other fixes/necessary refactoring there. Please hang on...
