#10353 made it so that HTTP::Server does not automatically add the content-length header when it shouldn't be present according to https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.3.2.

The question is, should HTTP::Server also enforce RFC compliance? I.e. removing the content-length header if the response status is a 204 and it's present.

I don't think there's much benefit in being overly restrictive.
