Bug #811
HEAD request returns the whole page (like a GET request) and not only headers.
Description
Doing a HEAD request on a µWeb served page gives back a full page (as if the request were a GET request), and not only the headers of that page.
RFC2616 specifies "The HEAD method is identical to GET except that the server MUST NOT return a message-body in the response"

Reduced Apache mock code and simplified return from uweb.Handler. Fixed request module to only actually send data for requests other than HEAD. This resolves #811.
