    http: ignore response body for HEAD requests
    
    Responses to HEAD requests must not have a message body, so do not
    attempt to use the Content-Length and similar headers that indicate a
    non-empty message body in the response. Those point to the entity that
    would be returned for non-HEAD requests.
    
    Requests do not have request_method set, so do not limit desegmentation
    by HEAD in that case. Verified by comparing the output of `tshark -O
    http` and by looking in the Wireshark GTK UI.
