webrick/httprequest: limit request headers size

We use the same 112 KB limit started (AFAIK) by Mongrel, Thin,
and Puma to prevent malicious users from using up all the memory
with a single request.  This also limits the damage done by
excessive ranges in multipart Range: requests.

Due to the way we rely on IO#gets and the desire to keep
the code simple, the actual maximum header may be 4093 bytes
larger than 112 KB, but we're splitting hairs at that point.

* lib/webrick/httprequest.rb: define MAX_HEADER_LENGTH
  (read_header): raise when headers exceed max length
