electron.net decompress caveat

[ccorcos]

• Node.js version: v11.3.0
• OS & version: Mac OS 10.14

The decompress: false option doesn't work as expected. When you're using electron's net API, the chromium network stack will automatically send accept-encoding headers and decode the result for you. Thus, the response data will always be decoded regardless of the content-encoding header. It would be nice to add this to the documentation under the decompress option.

Currently lots of electron features are broken, because of the new electron updates. We haven't fixed that yet - currently we are focused on rewriting Got to TypeScript. Once we achieve that, we'll figure out the rest :)

Closing in favor of #899
