This breaks --proxy-path-passthrough

However, we still need this when that code is disabled as many apps will
issue absolute redirects and expect the proxy to rewrite as appropriate.

e.g. Go's http.Redirect will rewrite relative redirects as absolute!
See https://golang.org/pkg/net/http/#Redirect
Any json or urlencoded request bodies were being consumed by body-parser
before they could be proxied. That's why requests without Content-Type
were proxied correctly as body-parser would not consume their body.

This allows the http-proxy package to passthrough the request body correctly
in all instances.
