## Message

```
flate: option to fill BitReader

fill(0) will fill all bytes in bit reader. If bit reader is aligned to
the byte, as it is at the end of the stream this ensures no overshoot
when reading footer. Footer is 4 bytes (zlib) or 8 bytes (gzip). For
zlib we will use 4 bytes BitReader and 8 for gzip. After align and fill
we will read those bytes and leave BitReader empty after that.

```
