Previously the same code caused no problem, but then
2fcb5b4669 changed the read buffer
size to 16384.
Since then (6.1.2.x) the webserver_handle_request_header() function
was sometimes cutting 1 byte off the packet due to sizeof(netbuf)-1
which was 16383 bytes. We now no longer use a fixed value and
allocate memory dynamically on the heap.
This fixes the bug that I was seeing but this change still needs
serious extra testing as it may affect websockets and RPC!
