Compresses `src` and returns a gzip-format byte string.
The result is binary data. Store it in a file, send it with an appropriate content type/encoding, or pass it directly to `gz_uncompress()`.
```uce
String compressed = gz_compress("hello\n");
file_put_contents("/tmp/hello.txt.gz", compressed);
```
UCE writes a standard gzip wrapper around a deflate stream, including CRC32 and uncompressed-size footer fields.
