[PATCH] doc: fix wrong 4-byte length of pkt-line message

From

Message-ID
<20200521075643.35286-1-jiuyang.xjy@alibaba-inc.com>

The first four bytes of the line, the pkt-len, indicates the total length of the pkt-line in hexadecimal. Fixed wrong pkt-len headers of some pkt-line messages in `http-protocol.txt` and `pack-protocol.txt`.
