download/git: force gzip compression level 6

Force gzip compression level 6 when calculating hash of a downloaded GIT repo.
To make sure the tar->gzip->checksum chain always provides consistent result.`

The script was relying on the default compression level, which must not be
necessarily consistent among different gzip versions. The level 6 is gzip's
current default compression level.
