Accessing files in JSON.GZIP format causes UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8'

[iqbalali]

I'm trying to access files in my S3 bucket. These files JSON.GZIP files. My example code:

conn = st.connection("s3", type=FilesConnection)
json = conn.read(f"s3://static.my_bucket.com/my_file.json.gz", input_format='json')

I get the following error:

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x8b in position 1: invalid start byte

I think the issue is that gzip is not supported? Is it possible to add this support, or is there a workaround I can use (that doesn't involve unzipping the gzip files).

Thanks for the module. This is going to be super useful!
