What is the current behavior?

A HTTP request that responds with a 204: No Content status and has 'Content-Encoding': 'gzip' header set, throws a java.io.EOFException on Android. This results in the request failing with a null statusCode, null statusText and null headers. This doesn't occur on iOS.

What is the new behavior?

gzip encoding is ignored if the response status is 204. Response correctly resolves.

Fixes #7375.
