Well, if you want absolute byte - connector seems the only place, there are
space and tabs beeing skipped when parsing headers, etc.

If you are ok with an estimate - the AccessLogValve is ok, add all the
header lengths + method + http/1.1. You'll miss bytes for encodings, spaces.

Re. where to add - each connector is different on how it reads/parse the
message, you probably want to do it close to the 'read()' call, save it
somewhere associated with the request ( a note or attribute ) and read it in
a valve or filter.
