Description

Communications between THttpServer in cpp lib and nodejs http client caused unexpected ECONNRESET. This was caused by nodejs client setting "Content-length" instead of "Content-Length" in the header field, causing THttpServer to terminate the request prematurely.

Per HTTP specification, header field name is case insensitive, therefore this patch used case insensitive match to identify "Content-Length" field.
