The default RPC transport now requests wire compression in Node

[steveluscher]

Summary

The fetch API in browsers automatically requests the wire compression encoding that the browser supports, in the order it wants it. Node's fetch API does not.

In this PR we add all of the default algorithms supported by Node LTS at the time of writing.

Closes #3338.

Test Plan

1. Install Node LTS (n lts)
2. Test that it actually supports these
