Fix README and docs pages that no longer match the code
Bring the READMEs and the docs pages (en and ja) in line with the current header: - Fix the client sample that does not compile, the Transfer-Encoding statement for default headers, the verifier callback comment, the thread pool spawn rule, the sanitize_filename description, and the inverted Accept-Encoding sentence. - Describe recent behaviour: TLS errors behind Read/Write failures, Host validation, Connection: close for a body without length, content_reader rules, refused CONNECT, WebSocketClient proxies, CPPHTTPLIB_INTERIM_RESPONSE_MAX_COUNT, the SSE event size limit, and the payload limit of the Stream API. - Complete the API references of WebSocket, WebSocketClient and the stream:: helpers, and the SSE reconnect rules. - Fix cookbook pages: keychain loading on every backend, received Close status, a multipart sample that trusted the client's file name, an echo sample that sent binary as text, SNI, pre-request handler scope, stop() with WebSocket handlers, and the thread pool notes. - Restore the mutex in the LLM app's Chapter 5 code.

Many sites redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS. With `set_follow_location(true)` on, this case is handled transparently — the client follows redirects even when the scheme or host changes.
|
||||
|
||||
When a redirect goes to another origin (a different scheme, host, or port), the client drops the `Authorization`, `Cookie`, and `Proxy-Authorization` headers, along with the credentials set with `set_basic_auth()` and the like, and doesn't present the client certificate. Other headers, default ones included, go along, and so do the timeouts, the payload limit, and the TLS verification settings.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Warning:** To follow redirects to HTTPS, you need to build cpp-httplib with OpenSSL (or another TLS backend). Without TLS support, redirects to HTTPS will fail.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** Following redirects adds to the total request time. See [C12. Set timeouts](../c12-timeouts) for timeout configuration.
