Default MODE Z support

I haven't found MODE Z support in the current version, so it'll be a great addition to the next version. it'll increase the speed of transfers of files that aren't compressed very well. As you know, MODE Z instructs the server to compress the stream using gzip.

This would be excellent for text files, or other uncompressed files. Of course, FFXP should determine when to enable it. For example, enabling MODE Z for zip, rar, mpg, avi and such, is useless. While for html, asp, iso, bin/cue, txt, exe and so on, it should increase the speed substantially.
