Revert "Added Apache configuration for dynamic gzip content"

This reverts commit fce92fd8a7e407b034d189a652af81a06ac98730.

Reason: We want any config that goes into the guides to be 100% right

If you're compiling nginx with Phusion Passenger you'll need to pass that option when prompted.
For Apache:
Using the Apache config tricks found on the Crave DIY blog, the following rewrite rules check the client's header to see if gzip is supported, then checks the filesystem to ensure a gzipped version exists, finally serving the gzipped file and forcing a the appropriate type.
<plain>
# Turn on the Rewrite engine
RewriteEngine On
# Check the client headers to see if they accept gzips
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Accept-Encoding} gzip
# Confirm the file exists in gzip format
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME}.gz -f
# Rewrite url to us gzip file
RewriteRule (.*\.(js|css))$ $1\.gz [L]
# If we've rewritten to a .css.gz file, force text/css
<FilesMatch .*\.css.gz>
ForceType text/css
</FilesMatch>
# If we've rewritten to a .js.gz file, force application/x-javascript
<FilesMatch .*\.js.gz>
ForceType application/x-javascript
</FilesMatch>
</plain>
A robust configuration for Apache is possible but tricky; please Google around. (Or help update this Guide if you have a good example configuration for Apache.)
