avformat/http: flushing tcp receive buffer when it is write only mode

In write only mode, the TCP receive buffer's data keeps growing with
http response messages and the buffer eventually becomes full.
This results in zero tcp window size, which in turn causes unwanted
issues, like, terminated tcp connection. The issue is apparent when
http persistent connection is enabled in hls/dash live streaming use
cases. To overcome this issue, the logic here reads the buffer data
when a file transfer is completed, so that any accumulated data in
the recieve buffer gets flushed out.
