20 lines is:
1) really not _that_ much
2) especially not dramatic as its just plain boilerplate info that won't
   change
3) only your version needs that much ;-P Can be easily cut down of 16 lines

    my $fh;
    if ($compress) {
        open($fh, '-|', "/usr/bin/gzip", "-c", "$file") or die "could not open file $file - $!";
    } else {
        open($fh, '<', $file) or die "could not open file $file- $!";
    }

    return {
        download => {
            fh => $fh,
            stream => 1,
            'content-encoding' => $compress ? 'gzip' : undef,
            'content-type' => $content_type // 'text/plain',
            'content-disposition' => 'attachment; filename="'. ($suggested_name // $file) .'"',
        },
    };



And independent of that, pve-common would be the wrong place for that helper, as it has no
control over how the http server takes the streaming hint, i.e., this is not a general
stream middleware but only prepare it in the specific format that our perl http server
expects it. So _iff_ it should go into pve-http-server, as otherwise any changes would need
and extra level of coordination on upgrade and possibly even make pve-common depend on
pve-http-server, introducing a circular dependency.
