Disable automatic compression of .gz files in stable-4.11 again #4165

This caused a regression in PackageManager and possibly elsewhere; so it is not suitable for the stable-4.11 branch. To clarify: this feature was not in GAP 4.11.0, we just backported it there. This PR adjusts that backport: we retain the improved to reading .gz files, but not the new behavior for automatically compression every file whose name ends with .gz.

Luckily we still have AppVeyor set up, so we are not completely without CI, even if this is incomplete. Anyway I also tested this change locally and it should be simple and safe enough...
