Summary of Changes

Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request refactors the project's compression middleware by swapping out the 'compression' package for 'http-compression'. This change aims to streamline the dependency tree by utilizing a more lightweight alternative, thereby potentially improving build times and reducing the overall footprint of the application. The functional behavior of HTTP compression remains intact, with a specific adjustment to disable Brotli compression in the new setup.

Highlights

• Dependency Replacement: The 'compression' middleware has been replaced with 'http-compression' to reduce the number of dependencies.
• Type Definitions: New type definitions for the 'http-compression' module were added to support the new dependency.
• Configuration Update: The server configuration was updated to use the new 'http-compression' middleware, explicitly disabling Brotli compression.
