[PATCH] Make http_PutProtocol() and http_PutResponse() never fail, and increase make the synthetic object's workspace be param->http_resp_size

The http_PutProtocol() and http_PutResponse() would in the case of
workspace overflow leave the headers as NULL and log a
SLT_LostHeader. This would make Varnish assert correctly later when
writing to the wire, as these are mandated by HTTP. This patch changes
them to set the fields to static strings instead ("HTTP/1.1" and "Lost
Response") when failing to write them to the workspace. This leaves
enough information to complete the protocol in the case of overflow.

The patch also increases the synthetic object's workspace from static
1024 to param->http_resp_size. This leaves more (and configurable)
room for manipulating the headers of the synthetic object in
vcl_error.
