NGINX module for Brotli compression

Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed with deflate but offers more dense compression. https://github.com/google/ngx_brotli

I want to take a stab at this, but I'm waiting to see how the reviews for my PRs for headers-more and the --with-compat nginx change go first.

I just took a look at the GitHub for ngx_brotli and there hasn't been an official stable release, just a pre-release.

There's an open issue about this with some relatively recent activity.
