Brad Fitzpatrick d88b13786d net/http, net/http/httptrace: make Transport support 1xx responses properly
Previously the Transport had good support for 100 Continue responses,
but other 1xx informational responses were returned as-is.

But per https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-6.2:

> A client MUST be able to parse one or more 1xx responses received
> prior to a final response, even if the client does not expect one. A
> user agent MAY ignore unexpected 1xx responses.

We weren't doing that. Instead, we were returning any 1xx that wasn't
100 as the final result.

With this change we instead loop over up to 5 (arbitrary) 1xx
responses until we find the final one, returning an error if there's
more than 5. The limit is just there to guard against malicious
servers and to have _some_ limit.

By default we ignore the 1xx responses, unless the user defines the
new httptrace.ClientTrace.Got1xxResponse hook, which is an expanded
version of the previous ClientTrace.Got100Continue.

Still remaining:

* httputil.ReverseProxy work. (From rfc7231#section-6.2: "A proxy MUST
  forward 1xx responses unless the proxy itself requested the
  generation of the 1xx response."). Which would require:

* Support for an http.Handler to generate 1xx informational responses.

Those can happen later. Fixing the Transport to be resilient to others
using 1xx in the future without negotiation (as is being discussed
with HTTP status 103) is most important for now.

Updates #17739
