Fixes unreliable behavior with ETag interactions with some BMCs as
opportunistic use of compressed responses may cause the BMC to change
an ETag response to "Weak", which is to be expected as an ETag represents
an absolute byte-by-byte response consistency, and compression cannot
reliably honor that contract. Introduction of a client perceiving a
"Weak" ETag may not be expected by the server, and the server may reject
responses because the ETag is not a "Strong" ETag when we respond or
interact with a resource.
As a result, requests no longer offer oppurtunistic compression
of responses as an acceptable possibility, which overall has minimal
impact, espescially when compared to the value of consistent BMC
behavior and interaction.
