Should fastify-compress handle compressed income requests?

🚀 Feature Proposal
A clear and concise description of what the feature is.
Fastify currently does not accept requests with Content-Encoding: gzip in its normal form, and since there is a generic module for compression-related work in the Fastify ecosystem, I think it would be good to extend its capabilities to support compressed incoming requests.
Motivation
Compression in HTTP is useful in HTTP requests too, not only in HTTP responses.
Example
An HTTP client would send a compressed HTTP request to a Fastify server using fastify-compress, and it would be handled properly.
I agree, it would be a good feature! Would you like to send a PR?
I would love to! However, I don't have much experience with Fastify or its codebase, so I would happily receive guidance/feedback on my PR. :-)
This needs to be investigated, I'm not necessarily sure on how and it might require some effort on Fastify itself.
Shall this be closed?
