"Encode" defaults compress already compressed font formats

[jsheard]

The default matcher for encode currently includes font/*, matching every font format. However, the modern WOFF and WOFF2 web font formats are already internally compressed with zlib and brotli respectively, so compressing them again is likely a waste of CPU cycles. Would it make sense to refine the defaults down to only compress the "legacy" non-WOFF formats?

Hmm, we used to do that: d3f23a8

@dunglas what do you think?

I agree. We should exclude these ones.

I believe the formats supported by browsers pre-WOFF were TTF, OTF, EOT and SVG, with these MIME types:

font/ttf
font/otf
application/vnd.ms-fontobject (EOT)
image/svg+xml (SVG fonts don't appear to have a more specific MIME type)

Caddy already has specific matchers for EOT and SVG so I think it would only need font/ttf and font/otf to be added in lieu of font/*.

I opened #6432 to fix the issue. Would you mind double-checking the patch @jsheard?
