This is a fallback mode for when the client has set "content-encoding: gzip". Without this, we pass the gzipped response to git-upload-pack/git-receive-pack and this will crash with a protocol error, closing the connection.
Ideally HTTP decompression is handled before the Falcon request handler but introducing an HTTP proxy here is a larger change.
