bcf2886a84 http: return HTTP 431 on HPE_HEADER_OVERFLOW error
Instead of returning a generic 400 response when the
max header size is reached, return a 431 Request Header
Fields Too Large.

This is a semver-major because it changes the HTTP
status code for requests that trigger the header
overflow error.
