For HTTP, Ignore the Content-Length header. This is particularly useful for
servers running Apache 1.x, which reports incorrect Content-Length for
files larger than 2 gigabytes.
For FTP, this makes curl skip the SIZE command to figure out the size before
downloading a file (added in 7.46.0).
This option does not work for HTTP if libcurl was built to use hyper.
