[tarantool-patches] Re: [PATCH v2 1/1] http: fix httpc auto-managed headers

The http library intelligently sets the headers "Accept",
"Connection", "Keep-Alive".
However, when the user explicitly specified them in the header
options section of the call argument, they could be written to
the HTTP request twice.
We postponed the auto headers setup before https_exececute call.
Now they are set only if they were not set by the user.

Closes #3955
