- If the REQUEST_METHOD environment variable is set, then CGI_HTTP_PROXY
replaces HTTP_PROXY.
[FIXED]

warning first.
- Sends Content-Length: 0 on empty body PUT/POST. This is not in the spec,
but some servers require this.
- Allows optional status line reason, as clarified in RFC 7230.
- Ignore SIGPIPE on reads as well as writes, as IO::Socket::SSL says that
SSL reads can also send writes as a side effect.
- Check if a server has closed a connection before preserving it for reuse.
[DOCS]
- Clarified that exceptions/errors result in 599 status codes.
[PREREQS]
- Optional IO::Socket::IP prereq must be at least version 0.32 to be used.
