Summary: Need an option to disable the POST > GET conversion on a 301

Initial Comment:
Right now, libcurl will unconditionally converts POSTs to GETs when following a 301 redirection.

Unfortunately, my current work requires me to deal with a server that only accepts POSTs but will issue a 301 to redirect from regular to ssl traffic.

I have written the attached patch to make the conversion optional (and on by default) and I'm using it in my local copy of libcurl. But I hope it can be accepted upstream.

Thanks.
