Update length attribute correctly when read() returns less than the expected number of bytes. Addresses bug # 988120

Logged In: YES user_id=261020 Patch basically looks good, but I'm worrying about the bit of code in the current httplib.py, in the block commented with '# unbounded read'. Why the switch on .will_close? Shouldn't the switch be on (self.length is None), instead? I could well be missing something, but this looks like another bug of the same kind as in the original report. Also, how about the various .readline() calls? Might they also return less than a full line?
