By default, dh_compress compresses files that debian policy mandates should

all files in usr/doc that are larger than 4k in size, except
-the copyright file, .html files and .gif files.
+the copyright file, .html files and .gif files, and all changelog files.

If a debian/compress file exits, however, it will be ran as a shell script,
and all filenames that the shell script outputs will be compressed instead
