Answer 501 to a request with a transfer coding besides chunked

A request whose Transfer-Encoding ended in chunked but listed more
(another coding before chunked, or chunked twice) was read with only
the chunked framing removed, so the handler got a body still in the
other coding. RFC 9112 6.1 lets a server answer 501 to a transfer
coding it does not implement. The server now accepts only a single
Transfer-Encoding field whose value is chunked, as Go and nginx do,
and answers any other list ending in chunked with 501 and closes the
connection. A list whose final coding is not chunked still gets 400.
