Summary: add -O analog to parse content-dispostion headers

Initial Comment:
-O option is not enough to make a wget replacement from curl, because it tries to figure out filename from URL. It would be more convenient if curl could parse - content-disposition header to get initial hint about target filename.

Message:
First, curl is not targeted at making a wget replacement so that's not
really an argument... (and wget only very recently started to support this
header)

This should be relatively easy to implement by using the header callback
function.
