A client that stops sending after the app answers is timed out (closes #130)
check / check (push) Waiting to run

When the app answered before the client had sent its whole body, and its
answer ended with its last bytes, every timeout was stopped,
SWWAF_CLIENT_REQUEST_TIMEOUT included. The transport went on waiting to
read the body, and Go's server cannot send the answer until that read
returns, so a client that stopped sending held the request until it
closed the connection. The timeouts now run on until the client has sent
its body, as they do before the app answers: once
SWWAF_CLIENT_REQUEST_TIMEOUT runs out the client is sent the app's
answer, the connection is closed, and the log line says timed_out.
