Description

HttpClient supports Accept-Encoding out of the box, there is no need to set it manually. Since this automatically adds deflate the lightweight provider should mimic this too. Compression support cannot be disabled on the lightweight provider thus to be consistent, it should be the same for the HttpClient provider, but since the latter provider is more versatile one could add <disableContentCompression /> option to the settings.xml in another ticket.
