+gzip: fix compression level bug. Closes 9131
+fix broken logic to get the gzip_level_config value from options -1 to
+-9.
+
+This fixes an off-by-one bug that caused gzip -9 output bigger files
+than the other compression levels.
+
+It fixes so that compression level 1 to 3 are actually mapped to level 4
+as comments say.
+
+It also fixes that levels -4 to -9 is mapped to correct level and avoids
+out-of-bounds access.
