test: cover redirect SSRF and semaphore release in httpfetcher (closes #78)

Adds httptest-server tests for the risk-bearing paths that only had
helper-level coverage: the CheckRedirect validator (a 302 to a
link-local address is refused with ErrSSRFBlocked and never dialed,
while a redirect chain and a redirect to a public target still
succeed), per-host semaphore release on the error, full-read-close, and
partial-read-close paths (proven by saturating a one-slot host), the
MaxResponseSize limit end-to-end through Fetch, non-2xx and disallowed
content-type rejection, and ssrfSafeDialer's dial-time block of a
private target.

To reach a loopback test server while the real SSRF checks run, the
upstream host is a TEST-NET-1 literal (192.0.2.10) that isPrivateIP
treats as public and that resolves with no DNS, and a recording dialer
routes it to the server. Full DNS-rebinding simulation is documented as
out of scope; the dial-time private-target block that closes that
window is tested directly.
