* Fixed compress request option
* Fixed parsing authorities of CONNECT messages
* Fixed parsing Content-Range messages
* Fixed http\Env\Response to default to chunked encoding over streams
* Fixed superfluous output of Content-Length:0 headers
* Fixed persistent easy handles to be only created for persistent multi handles
* Fixed the header parser to accept not-yet-complete header lines
* Fixed http\Message::toStream() crash in ZTS mode
* Fixed the message stream parser to handle intermediary data bigger than 4k
* Fixed the message stream parser to handle single header lines without EOL
* Fixed http\Message\Body to not generate stat based etags for temporary streams
- Deprecated http\Client::enablePipelining(), use 
http\Client::configure(["pipelining" => true]) instead
- Deprecated http\Client::enableEvents(), use 
http\Client::configure(["use_eventloop" => true]) instead
- Removed the cookies entry from the transfer info, wich was very slow and 
generated a Netscape formatted list of cookies
- Changed the header parser to reject illegal characters

Changes from RC1:
* Fixed a shutdown crash with chunked encoded stream responses

Package Info
-------------
This HTTP extension aims to provide a convenient and powerful 
set of functionality for one of PHPs major applications.

It eases handling of HTTP urls, headers and messages, provides 
means for negotiation of a client's preferred content type, 
language and charset, as well as a convenient way to send any 
arbitrary data with caching and resuming capabilities.

It provides powerful request functionality with support for
parallel requests.
