We currently set curl's FAILONERROR option, which means that
any http failures are reported as curl errors, and the
http body content from the server is thrown away.

This patch introduces a new option to http_get_strbuf which
specifies that the body content from a failed http response
should be placed in the destination strbuf, where it can be
accessed by the caller.
