[PATCH|PULL 0/2] chunked: limit to HTTP/1.1, undeprecate

[Eric Wong]

Lets reduce the pain on end users upgrading to Rack 3.
HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1 aren't going away, and I was dealing
with HTTP/0.9 until 2017.

Fwiw, probably 95% of people and organizations I know have
given up on Ruby due to constant treadmill of upgrades and
incompatibilities, so avoid giving them more reason to give
up Ruby due to more incompatibilities.

The following changes since commit 6aad5390403ca48a0ba76e426a21274385895731:

The stream argument must implement `#<<`. (#1959) (2022-08-31 14:31:46 +1200)

895beec0622d (chunked: do not chunk on pre-HTTP/1.0 clients, 2013-11-12)
was written in 2013 in anticipation of HTTP/1.2 and future versions
supporting chunked encoding. As of 2022, HTTP/1.2 is yet to happen,
and is unlikely given HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 both exist. So limit
chunking to HTTP/1.1, since HTTP/1.x will remain in use for years
to come, and there's still a few odd places using HTTP/0.9.

Now that Rack::Chunked is gracefully a no-op for non-1.1 HTTP
versions, do not cause unnecessary pain for end users upgrading
to Rack 3.
