it closes itself. When the stream is read in several calls to read(n),
it should behave in the same way if HTTPConnection knows where the end
of the stream is (through self.length). Added a test case for this
behaviour.
changes in the tests, so failing one test won't produce strange
results in others. Also relaxed the timeout settings in the test
(where actually the value didn't mean anything).
Hack httplib to work with broken Akamai proxies.
Make sure that httplib doesn't add extract Accept-Encoding or
Content-Length headers if the client has already set them.
imports of test modules now import from the test package. Other
related oddities are also fixed (like DeprecationWarning filters that
weren't specifying the full import part, etc.). Also did a general
code cleanup to remove all "from test.test_support import *"'s. Other
from...import *'s weren't changed.
If multiple header fields with the same name occur, they are combined
according to the rules in RFC 2616 sec 4.2:
Appending each subsequent field-value to the first, each separated by
a comma. The order in which header fields with the same field-name are
received is significant to the interpretation of the combined field
value.
