Research direction

Review the uploaded http.client.put.fix.patch files and early_http_response_tests.patch first, then inspect the http.client implementation and its existing tests. Reproduce the PUT behavior with an error response sent immediately after headers, and confirm the response is no longer ignored by the relevant early-response tests.
