Reported in the forum: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/image-upload-fails-after-upgrading-from-7-1-to-7-3.119051/#post-516517

When additional headers existed in the request body, the upload failed.
With this patch, all additional headers get ignored.

Example: The following upload would fail because no
headers were expected after Content-Disposition.

```
--EPIHyQJFC5ftgoXHMe8-Jc6E7FqA4oMb0QBfOTz
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="content"
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

iso
```
would fail. These headers now also get ignored, as we don't use them.

Also, upload now works when the Content-Disposition header isn't the first, i.e.
```
--XVH95dt1-A3J8mWiLCmHCW4roSC7-gBntjATBy--
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="content"
```

Fixed upload was tested using
* Curl
* GUI
* Apache HttpClient 5

Changes from v1:
* wait for delimiter before handling data, as reported in forum
* squash ignore order of headers patch
