issue2551147 - Enable compression of http responses in roundup. gzip, (brotli/zstd with optional packages) on the fly compression/content-encoding enabled by default. Can serve pre-compressed static assets as well if the client can accept it. Docs updated. Also added example nginx config to installation.txt. The config allows nginx to compress data on the fly. If the config is used, dynamic compression in roundup can be disabled. Dedicating this checkin to my father Paul Hector Rouillard 1930-2021. I did much of the development in this changeset while sitting with him as he slept/transitioned. Without his encouragement and example, my desire to learn would not be what it is and I wouldn't be half the person I am.

 .. index:: Upgrading; 2.0.0 to 2.1.0
 
+Migrating from 2.1.0 to 2.x.y
+=============================
+
+Check Compression Settings
+--------------------------
+
+Read the `administration guide`_ section on 'Configuring Compression'.
+
+Upgrade tracker's config.ini file. Use::
+
+  roundup-admin -i /path/to/tracker updateconfig newconfig.ini
+
+to generate a new ini file preserving all your settings. You can then
+merge any local comments from the tracker's ``config.ini`` into
+``newconfig.ini``. Compare the old and new files and configure new
+compression settings as you want. Then replace ``config.ini`` with the
+``newconfig.ini`` file.
