RFR JDK-7031075: GZIPInputStream's available() reports 1, but read() gives -1.

Hi Sherman,

A quick question. Is "inf.finished()" the only condition that needs to be
checked in order to determine reachEOF? In read(), for instance, they use union:

    if (inf.finished() || inf.needsDictionary())
        reachEOF = true;
        
Otherwise it seems to me it could be the case that read() returns -1 while
available() returns 0. Or I am missing something obvious.

Thanks.
