Re: [XMLHttpRequest-tests] XMLHttpRequest/send-entity-body-get-head* tests should not fail if Content-Length is 0 (#980)

So the proposed change to the tests is to remove this line:

    assert_equals(client.getResponseHeader("x-request-content-length"), "NO")

from these files:

XMLHttpRequest/send-entity-body-get-head-async.htm
XMLHttpRequest/send-entity-body-get-head.htm

However we want a consensus on whether sending Content-Length: 0 or not sending content length is the right thing (tm) to do. How are we going to achieve that consensus?
