Decode compressed response

See original GitHub issue

I have the following in my conftest.py:

@pytest.fixture(scope="module")
def vcr_config():
    return {
        "cassette_library_dir": f"{TESTS_DIR}/fixtures/cassettes",
        "decode_compressed_response": True,
        "filter_headers": ["authorization"]
    }

But decoding is happening intermittently.

I.e. www.google.com returns responses in different encodings for different user-agents 😃 And then they are stored differently
