This method is equivalent to deflate('', flush). This method is just provided to improve the readability of your Ruby program. If a block is given chunks of deflate output are yielded to the block until the buffer is flushed.

See Zlib::Deflate#deflate for detail on the flush constants NO_FLUSH, SYNC_FLUSH, FULL_FLUSH and FINISH.
