Add GZip compression to HAProxy config file

[MartinaeyNL]

Description

Fixes #13

As a simple test, I tried out this HAProxy config locally to experiment if the Manager UI would load properly.
I'm not an expert in HAProxy nor any proxy application, so it was just a simple attempt 😉
I looked at the official documentation, and made adjustments based on that.

It seems to correctly apply the GZip compression, and significantly reduce the download sizes.
For example, the Manager UI bundle went down from 6.5MB to about 2.7MB.

Any feedback on this is welcome 👍

Changelog

• Adds GZip compression to HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, and SVG files from the Manager backend.

Maybe we should add a minimum file size as described here in their documentation.
Will do that quickly.

LGTM.

I tested it locally via the demo docker compose profile, everything works as intended. I also checked the network requests and responses, and the compression is properly applied.

Only concern I still have is that its applied to all payload sizes, however #15 can address this.
