Summary: gzip.GzipFile.flush() does not flush all internal buffers

Initial Comment:
flush() is expected to output all pending data stored
in internal buffers.

gzip.GzipFile.flush() does perform a flush on its
fileobj, but does not flush the state of its compressobj
prior to the IO flush.

This results in being able to use gzip.GzipFile to zip 
output to a socket and having the other side unzip it
in sync with originators flush calls.
