http: support generic `Duplex` streams

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/addaleax/http-generic-streams into master

Support generic Duplex streams through more duck typing on the server and client sides.

Since HTTP is, as a protocol, independent of its underlying transport layer, Node.js should not enforce any restrictions on what streams its HTTP parser may use.
