This relates to #293. If we use Kitura-net's ClientRequest to send a request to a Kitura server (using either Kitura-net or Kitura-NIO) with a payload over a certain threshold, curl will stall for a second because the server does not acknowledge the Expect: 100-continue header that it sends. It still works, but it adds 1 second to the request latency.
We can avoid this by setting an empty Expect header, which disables this feature of curl (it sends the entire request in one shot).
This is particularly beneficial to the Kitura tests, which otherwise take a second each to complete.
