[AIRFLOW-1016] Allow HTTP HEAD request method on HTTPSensor
This PR provides the HEAD http method on top of GET. This is useful
for getting responses without a body, and provides a lighter weight
response.
Closes #2175 from msempere/AIRFLOW-1016/allow-
http-head-request-method-on-httpsensor

> HTTPSensor hardcodes the HTTP request method to `GET`, and could be the case
> where `HEAD` method is needed to act as a sensor.
> This case is useful when we just need to retrieve some meta data and not the
> complete body for that particular request, and that metadata information is
> enough for our sensor.
