compress/gzip: do not count header bytes written in Write
Before, if an underlying writer errored within 10 bytes (plus any gzip
header metadata), a gzip.Write would erroneously report up to 10 bytes
written that were not actually written of the input slice. This is
especially problematic when the input slice is less than 10 bytes.
The error came from counting the 10 header byte write. If writing the
header is completely successful, the 10 bytes written is overridden by
the flate write with the input slice.
This removes counting the 10 required header bytes, and also changes the
return to use zero until the slice is used.
The old Write could return one byte written when it actually was not.
This is difficult to verify because the smallest input slice is one
byte; a test checking that the input slice was the byte written would be
quite involved. Thankfully, gzip's minimum header write is 10 bytes. If
we test that two bytes are not falsely written, we indirectly cover the
one byte case.
Fixes #24625
