Content-Length does not change when injecting tokens into request bodies

I am using the version of BurpExtractor from PortSwigger which is currently 11 commits behind the upstream.

The same is observed with this project's latest.

This may cause the very first request(s) of Scan to lock up waiting on HTTP response where the HTTP request did not fill the claimed Content-Length size.

As a work-around, I wrapped my head around this and "learned" to "turn on" the extractor's rules only after starting the scan and observing new token finds updating in the top of the Extractor tabs.
