hgweb: skip body creation of HEAD for most requests

The body is thrown away anyway, so this just wastes a lot of CPU time.
In the case of /archive/, this skips manifest processing and the actual
file archiving, resulting in a huge difference.

The most tricky part here is skipping the Content-Length creation as it
would indicate the output size for the corresponding GET request.
