[Python] Create Python examples of HTTP GET Arrow client and server using HTTP compression

[ianmcook]

Describe the enhancement requested

Create simple Python-based HTTP client and server examples like the ones in arrow-experiments/http/get_simple or arrow-experiments/http/get_range but using HTTP compression.

For example, the client sends a request with header Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br, zstd and the server sends a response with header Content-Encoding: gzip and with the response body gzip-compressed which the HTTP client library automatically decompresses.

@felipecrv I suggested using Python here for simplicity, but it could be in some other language if needed

[ianmcook]

@felipecrv let's please make sure we test HTTP compression using the zstd codec. That way we will have a same-codec comparison between HTTP compression and Arrow IPC buffer compression.

We should also test other HTTP compression codecs, since zstd is not as common for HTTP.

(Besides zstd, the only other codec that IPC buffer compression supports is lz4. But lz4 is rarely or never supported for HTTP compression. So zstd is our only choice for same-codec comparisons.)

[felipecrv]

I'm doing all of them actually. Server can acts according to the Accept-Encoding header and negotiate the chosen compression. But I will put a recommendation for zstd for sure.
