parse_post() fails on valid content types

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Submit an AJAX post with this in the header, "Content-Type
application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8" and this in the post body
"foo=bar".
2. While handling the request 'Req', call 'Req:parse_post()'.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected: [{"foo", "bar"}]
Actual: []

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.

There is a case statement in parse_post() that is a bit too restrictive.
Instead of doing a direct string comparison against
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" you might want to do a substring search
or something more sophisticated that actually tokenizes the content-type
string.
