Summary0001223: http 1.0 requests must not be pipelined
DescriptionThe library currently operates pretty much always in http 1.1 mode. As a result, it never closes the connection unless it absolutely has to. However, for http 1.0 clients (aka telnet-users), LMD should close the connection after every single request.

http 1.0 clients do not necessarily detect the end of a transmission using content-length headers, so not closing the connection is likely to cause significant trouble for them.
Additional InformationThe required changes include first of all detecting the use of http 1.0, then setting appropriate headers (like, that we will close the connection upon completion) and finally actually forcing the closure of the connection at the right time(s).
