Description:
I was surpsised to see that the http 2.4 package
doesn't handle chunked transfer encoding for responses
from the webserver.  Many webservers use this.  I
implemented this  and I think it will be a valuable
addition to this package.

Regardless, this goes a long way towards making the http
package interoperate well with real webservers.

Chunked transfers are part of HTTP/1.1, but the http package
currently only implements HTTP/1.0. Upgrading to 1.1 would
be very cool, but I seem to recall that chunked isn't the
only thing that needs to be done (alas).
