#1809: Allow a Content-Length: 0 header on a 204 response

Comment (by widodh):
I've looked at this with a colleague and he pointed me at RFC7230:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.3.2
{{{
A server MUST NOT send a Content-Length header field in any response with
a status code of 1xx (Informational) or 204 (No Content).
}}}
That clarifies it. Varnish is keeping to the standard, BUT, the comment in
the code should be updated that it points to RFC7230 and not to RFC2616.
