CVE-2026-53659: http4k: Unbounded gzip decompression in `ServerFilters.GZip` / `RequestFilters.GunZip` allowed memory-exhaustion DoS

ServerFilters.GZip and RequestFilters.GunZip (and the underlying Gzip functions used to decompress request bodies) did not impose any cap on the decompressed size. A small malicious gzip-encoded request body (on the order of kilobytes) could decompress to gigabytes, exhausting the JVM heap and denying service to other clients.

Who is affected: any http4k server that accepts gzip-encoded requests via ServerFilters.GZip or RequestFilters.GunZip. Exploitable by any unauthenticated client. The vulnerability was introduced on 2017-08-01 (commit 2618fe08f9) and was present for ~9 years.
