[packaging-on-the-web] Why not use `Content-Encoding`? (#17)

Maybe it's just me but I found the use of `Transfer-Encoding` to indicate a message part is compressed rather confusing. Why can't we use `Content-Encoding` the same way that it is used for entire messages?

As an aside: I don't think that compressing the entire package would make it less streamable from a decoding perspective. It may not make sense if it contains binary files, but issue 3 seems based on wrong assumptions.
