http: added options for allowing HTTP/0.9 responses
Added CURLOPT_HTTP09_ALLOWED and --http0.9 for this purpose. For now, both the tool and library allow HTTP/0.9 by default. docs/DEPRECATE.md lays out the plan for when to reverse that default: 6 months after the 7.64.0 release. The options are added already now so that applications/scripts can start using them already now. Fixes #2873 Closes #3383

+Help: Allow HTTP 0.9 responses
+---
+Tells curl to be fine with HTTP version 0.9 response.
+
+HTTP/0.9 is a completely headerless response and therefore you can also
+connect with this to non-HTTP servers and still get a response since curl will
+simply transparently downgrade - if allowed.
+
+A future curl version will deny continuing if the response isn't at least
+HTTP/1.0 unless this option is used.
