API Gateway Compression

[nplutt]

Now that compression has been released for api gateway, it would be great if there was some way configure it from Chalice. My proposal is to add an optional configuration parameter of minimum_compression_size to each stage in the config.json file. This would look something like:

{
  "version": "2.0",
  "app_name": "compression-poc"
  "stages": {
    "dev": {
      "api_gateway_stage": "api",
      "minimum_compression_size": 0,
      "lambda_memory_size": 1536
    }
  }
}

Marking as a feature request. I think the configuration would make sense.
