Contributions summary:Matt focused on enhancing the `http4s/http4s` library, particularly the GZip middleware. Their primary contributions involved refining the GZip implementation by calculating CRC32 and input length for the trailer. These changes include on-the-fly calculations and updates to address empty response body scenarios, alongside the addition of property-based tests to ensure proper GZIP encoding. Furthermore, they modified the cookie parser to handle various spacing scenarios.
