do_setopts/3 was being called with the 3rd arg as a boolean instead of the "State".

1) Set Content-Length to 0 for empty PUT and POST requests (necessary for some proxies);

2) Use iolist_size/1 instead of size/1 or length/1 because the body can be an iolist

encoding/decoding code in ibrowse_lib.erl and ibrowse_http_client.erl.

OTP's base64 module is also more efficient (C implementation):

               any more ETS tables if queries were made to many number of
               webservers. ibrowse now deletes the ETS table it creates once the
               last connection to a webserver is dropped.
