compress/flate: simplify inflate logic

The flate library contains generator code, which is used to generate
the fixed huffman table. This is done so that fixed blocks can be
processed quicker since there is no need generate the decoder table
for fixed codes.

Instead, delete the precomputed table, and use sync.Once to generate
it at runtime when used.

Advantages:
* Reduces duplicated logic in flate package
* Reduces binary size by approximately 2KiB

Disadvantages:
* For the simplest possible program that simply decodes the fixed
block "\x03\x00" once, the modified code takes 4.7% longer for the
first decode. Compression performance for subsequent blocks afterwards
has no noticeable slow down.
