 * Empty HTTP content of length zero just to force {@link HttpRequest#execute()} to add the header

 *
 * 
 * Note that there is no {@code Content-Length} header if the HTTP request content is {@code null} .
 * However, when making a request like PUT or POST without a {@code Content-Length} header, some
 * servers may respond with a {@code 411 Length Required} error. Specifying the
 * {@code Content-Length: 0} header may work around that problem.
