compress-drv: allow passing extra arguments to find
This is useful for eg. nextcloud to prevent compressing thousands of
later unused files which are actually not used by the web server.

compressDrvWeb compresses a derivation for common web server use.
Useful when one wants to pre-compress certain static assets and pass them to
the web server.
# Inputs
`formats` ([String])
: List of file extensions to compress.
Defaults to common formats that compress well.
`extraFindOperands` (String)
: See compressDrv for details.
`extraFormats` ([ String ])
: Extra extensions to compress in addition to `formats`.
`compressors` ( { ${fileExtension} :: String })
: Map a desired extension (e.g. `gz`) to a compress program.
# Type
```
compressDrvWeb :: Derivation -> { formats :: [ String ]; extraFormats :: [ String ]; compressors :: { ${fileExtension} :: String; } } -> Derivation
```
# Examples
:::{.example}
## `pkgs.compressDrvWeb` full usage example with `pkgs.gamja` and a webserver
```nix
For example, building `pkgs.gamja` produces the following output:
/nix/store/2wn1qbk8gp4y2m8xvafxv1b2dcdqj8fz-gamja-1.0.0-beta.9/
index.2fd01148.js
index.2fd01148.js.map
index.37aa9a8a.css
index.37aa9a8a.css.map
index.html
manifest.webmanifest
With `pkgs.compressDrvWeb`, one can compress these files:
```nix
pkgs.compressDrvWeb pkgs.gamja {}
=>
«derivation /nix/store/...-gamja-compressed.drv»
```
```bash
/nix/store/f5ryid7zrw2hid7h9kil5g5j29q5r2f7-gamja-1.0.0-beta.9-compressed
index.2fd01148.js -> /nix/store/2wn1qbk8gp4y2m8xvafxv1b2dcdqj8fz-gamja-1.0.0-beta.9/index.2fd01148.js
index.2fd01148.js.br
index.2fd01148.js.gz
index.2fd01148.js.map -> /nix/store/2wn1qbk8gp4y2m8xvafxv1b2dcdqj8fz-gamja-1.0.0-beta.9/index.2fd01148.js.map
index.2fd01148.js.map.br
index.2fd01148.js.map.gz
index.37aa9a8a.css -> /nix/store/2wn1qbk8gp4y2m8xvafxv1b2dcdqj8fz-gamja-1.0.0-beta.9/index.37aa9a8a.css
index.37aa9a8a.css.br
index.37aa9a8a.css.gz
index.37aa9a8a.css.map -> /nix/store/2wn1qbk8gp4y2m8xvafxv1b2dcdqj8fz-gamja-1.0.0-beta.9/index.37aa9a8a.css.map
index.37aa9a8a.css.map.br
index.37aa9a8a.css.map.gz
index.html -> /nix/store/2wn1qbk8gp4y2m8xvafxv1b2dcdqj8fz-gamja-1.0.0-beta.9/index.html
index.html.br
index.html.gz
manifest.webmanifest -> /nix/store/2wn1qbk8gp4y2m8xvafxv1b2dcdqj8fz-gamja-1.0.0-beta.9/manifest.webmanifest
manifest.webmanifest.br
manifest.webmanifest.gz
```
When the `-compressed` derivation is passed to a properly configured web server,
it enables direct serving of the pre-compressed files.
```shell-session
$ curl -I -H 'Accept-Encoding: br' https://irc.example.org/
<...>
content-encoding: br
<...>
```
For example, a caddy configuration snippet for gamja to serve
the static assets (JS, CSS files) pre-compressed:
```nix
{
virtualHosts."irc.example.org".extraConfig = ''
root * ${pkgs.compressDrvWeb pkgs.gamja {}}
file_server browse {
precompressed br gzip
}
'';
}
```
This feature is also available in nginx via `ngx_brotli` and
`ngx_http_gzip_static_module`.
