This PR ensures we obey the HTTP specs and never send a response body for
HEADrequest. Similarly, certain status codes do not permit a message body.This happens automatically, so that consumers of this lib do not have to take care of this. This also applies to our error handling logic, which now uses the same routines to ensure an invalid
HEADrequest does not send a response body.See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.3, https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.3.1 and https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.3.2
