compress/gzip: specify when Reader.Header is valid

The gzip package is asymmetrical in the way it handles headers.
In Writer, the Header is written on the first call to Write, Flush, or Close.
In Reader, the Header is read on calls to NewReader or Reset as opposed to
after the first Read. Thus, we document this difference.

Fixes #13211
