http: allow short response byte range

RFC9110 specifies that a client must handle a shorter response range
than requested in all circumstanges. Previously, RFC7233 only required
that behaviour for multipart ranges, which VLC did not use.

This matches the newer specification: VLC will try to resume from the
last received offset not only on unexpected error, but also on short
response.

Fixes #28627.
