Dmitry Frank b9b20c6494 Implement mg_http_parse_header2()
Which is a replacement of (deprecated) `mg_http_parse_header`, but,
similarly to `asprintf`, allocates a new buffer if the client-provided
one is not large enough.

Also use it throughout mongoose code, and thus some header-related
limitations are removed; in particular,
https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose/issues/813 is fixed.

CL: Mongoose Web Server: Deprecate `mg_http_parse_header()` and implement `mg_http_parse_header2()` instead, which allocates a new buffer if the client-provided one is not large enough (similarly to `asprintf`).
CL: Mongoose Web Server: Fix limitations of header value lengths, e.g. when parsing authentication headers such as nonce, etc.

mg_http_parse_header() mg_http_parse_header func int mg_http_parse_header(struct mg_str *hdr, const char *var_name, char *buf, size_t buf_size);

DEPRECATED: use mg_http_parse_header2() instead.

Same as mg_http_parse_header2(), but takes buffer as a char * (instead of char **), and thus it cannot allocate a new buffer if the provided one is not enough, and just returns 0 in that case.
