Apache does not serve pre-compressed files

Hello,

For CSS and JS files, I have generated the corresponding compressed files for brotli algorithm. At the .htaccess file I have placed the code described at the below link of Apache documentation:

https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_brotli.html

However, after conducting some tests with cURL command, I noticed that Apache still compressed CSS and JS content on-the-fly, as if the ".br" file did not exist.

  Hey hey!  This might be one we need to see a ticket on so we can test this directly on your system as this should be working as you describe.
