TODO: Schannel: 'Add option to allow abrupt server closure'

We should offer an option to allow abrupt server closures (server closes
SSL transfer without sending a known termination point such as length of
transfer or close_notify alert). Abrupt server closures are usually
because of misconfigured or very old servers.

15.4 Add option to allow abrupt server closure
libcurl w/schannel will error without a known termination point from the
server (such as length of transfer, or SSL "close notify" alert) to prevent
against a truncation attack. Really old servers may neglect to send any
termination point. An option could be added to ignore such abrupt closures.
