Add support for HTTP trailing headers
-------------------------------------

                 Key: NETTY-251
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/NETTY-251
             Project: Netty
          Issue Type: Feature Request
            Reporter: Trustin Lee
            Assignee: Trustin Lee
             Fix For: 3.2.0.ALPHA2


The last HTTP chunk can have trailing headers which could be useful to provide additional information that could be computed from the content of the HTTP message, such as 'Content-MD5'.  The current HttpMessageDecoder implementation simply discards the trailing headers, but they should be decoded correctly.  The decoded trailer should be part of the last chunk, which means a new subtype of HttpChunk (or HttpPartialMessage) must be introduced to provide additional header access methods and to represent the end of the content.
