Support Brotli / Zstd for Dataset

Support Brotli / Zstd for Dataset Uploads

Currently, when sending items to the API endpoint:

POST https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/:datasetId/items


It looks like only gzip and deflate are supported for Content-Encoding.

I’d love to see Brotli (br) or Zstandard (zstd) added. These encodings provide better compression than gzip, which could save bandwidth and improve performance, especially for large JSON datasets.
