Subject: [PATCH] CVE-2019-15605 - HTTP request smuggling

Upstream: https://github.com/nodejs/http-parser/commit/7d5c99d09f6743b055d53fc3f642746d9801479b

Support multi-coding Transfer-Encoding

`Transfer-Encoding` header might have multiple codings in it. Even
though llhttp cares only about `chunked`, it must check that `chunked`
is the last coding (if present).

ABNF from RFC 7230:

```
Transfer-Encoding = *( "," OWS ) transfer-coding *( OWS "," [ OWS
    transfer-coding ] )
transfer-coding = "chunked" / "compress" / "deflate" / "gzip" /
    transfer-extension
   transfer-extension = token *( OWS ";" OWS transfer-parameter )
   transfer-parameter = token BWS "=" BWS ( token / quoted-string )
```

However, if `chunked` is not last - llhttp must assume that the encoding
and size of the body is unknown (according to 3.3.3 of RFC 7230) and
read the response until EOF. For request - the error must be raised for
an unknown `Transfer-Encoding`.

Furthermore, 3.3.3 of RFC 7230 explicitly states that presence of both
`Transfer-Encoding` and `Content-Length` indicates the smuggling attack
and "ought to be handled as an error".

For the lenient mode:

* Unknown `Transfer-Encoding` in requests is not an error and request
  body is simply read until EOF (end of connection)
* Only `Transfer-Encoding: chunked` together with `Content-Length` would
  result an error (just like before the patch)
