### Description
According to the CURL documentation (https://curl.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING.html) setting
CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING to a null value (not an empty string) will prevent it from
decompressing the returned data stream. This is desirable in a caching/proxy scenario.
Currently this is not possible as PHP will always provide a string to this value.
### PHP Version
8.1.20
### Operating System
Debian 11
