This patch set adds an option, http.continue, to enable requests for 100 Continue responses when pushing over HTTP. This is needed for large pushes using GSS-Negotiate authentication.

I decided to be optimistic and default the option to on, which means that 100 Continue responses will be requested. My rationale for this is that modern versions of Squid, Apache, and nginx seem to do the right thing, as well as most non-proxy HTTP 1.1 implementations, and that we should optimize for functional, up-to-date software. HTTP 1.1 is 16 years old, after all.
