Failure when creating empty attachments

The following trace occurs when trying to create an empty attachment:

ERROR: test_empty_attachment (couchdb.tests.client.DatabaseTestCase)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):

BadStatusLine

It seems that httplib doesn't send a Content-Length header when the content
body is ''.  The attached patch contains a test and also a one-line fix
that simply adds the Content-Length header.

Note: this patch is needed for my CouchDB-FUSE filesystem stuff to work; 
otherwise it
has no way to create empty files.
