Added gzip file support to lorry

The new 'gzip' lorry file is practical for any gzipped single file
repositories, this can be useful for some static blob resources,
such as fonts.

+### Gzip
+
+Lorry can import a gzip file fetched from a URL. The file will be extracted in place
+and committed directly to master after removing the .gz extension from the filename.
+
+The new commit will be tagged with the basename of the imported zip file (e.g. bkai00mp.ttf.gz
+will be tagged as 'bkai00mp.ttf')
+
+    {
+        "ttf-bkai00mp": {
+            "type": "gzip",
+            "url": "ftp://ftp.gnu.org/non-gnu/chinese-fonts-truetype/bkai00mp.ttf.gz"
+        }
+    }
