client: allow keep-alive for POST requests
Allow POST requests via persistent connections to improve performance especially when using HTTPS on older devices. After this change, average page load times in LuCI improve significantly once the TLS connections are initiated. When testing an ar71xx 19.07.2 build on an ethernet connected TL-WR1043nd using luci-ssl-openssl and the ustream-openssl backend, the average page load time for the main status page decreased to 1.3s compared to 4.7s before, the interface and wireless configuration pages loaded in 1.2s seconds each compared to the 4.2s and 4.9s respectively before.
