Support for HTTP-method "HEAD"

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,
i have attached another patch with the following enhancements:

- Support for HTTP "HEAD"-Requests: Some Proxys and Browsers are updating their 
cache with HTTP HEAD requests. Now servdroid is able to perform these requests.
- "405 Method Not Allowed" for POST requests and "400 Bad request" for 
unsupported HTTP/1.1 requests.
- Code cleanup: All reponse headers are written into a Map. 
- "trailing space redirect". Example: URL "/dir" is redirected to "/dir/". 
Apache mod_dir and IIS does this too.
- Enhanced date comparision while analyzing the "if-modified-since"-header.

Any comments?

Sorry for my bad english. I hope my code is much better :)

Jan

a patch for the patch :)

I think it is better to set a locale:

    private DateFormat httpDate = new SimpleDateFormat(HTTP_DATE_FORMAT,Locale.US);

otherwise the HTTP-Headers look faulty on my german android phone.

sorry ;)
