Ensure Debian repositories don't server Packages.gz as plain files

Mathieu Parent requested to merge sathieu/gitlab:debian_no_bz2_gz into master

While testing !108492 (merged) with aptly, I found out that older versions of aptly (0.9.7-1, from Debian 9 stretch oldoldstable) always tries to get compressed versions of Packages indices, even when not present in the Release file.

While newer versions of aptly don't have this problem, we should still fix this to return 404 for compressed indices (as we don't support them - yet).

Note to the reviewers: I couldn't fix this using format and other ruby-grape options. Help appreciated 🤝 !
