[PATCH] http: cast result to FILE *

From
DMDan McGregor <dan.mcgregor@usask.ca>

<20190201193004.88736-1-dan.mcgregor@usask.ca>

Commit 8dd2e88a92 ("http: support file handles for HTTP_KEEP_ERROR", 2019-01-10) introduced an implicit assumption that rewind, fileno, and fflush are functions. At least on FreeBSD fileno is not, and as such passing a void * failed.

Explicitly cast result to a FILE * when using standard functions that may ultimately be macros.
