Add Support to HTTP Response Header "Location"

[jiwhiz]

In current angular-hal.js code (version 0.1.3) line 219, it only handle HTTP Response Header "Content-Location". It is better to add support to "Location" as well.

There are differences between "Content-Location" and "Location" header, see the blog http://www.subbu.org/blog/2008/10/location-vs-content-location.

"The Location response-header field is used to redirect the recipient to a Location other than the Request-URI for completion of the request or identification of a new resource."

So when the client 'POST' a new resource to the server, the server will return empty response body with "Location" header pointing to the URI of new resource.

I suggest to add one line of code at line 220:

if (res.headers('Location')) return res.headers('Location');

Thanks,

Yuan

I guess this would be a good idea. Could you make a pull-request?
