Veloman Yunkan 3d08ef43f2 HEAD request is not rejected
libmicrohttpd handles HEAD requests by dropping the body of the response
(if any). Hence letting a HEAD request through into the code that
processes GET requests is safe.

Also added server unit-tests related to the handling of HEAD requests.

Veloman Yunkan 9a893a854e Revert "Server can be started on a random free port"
This change failed to build under the following platforms
due to an older version of libmicrohttpd missing support for
the MHD_DAEMON_INFO_BIND_PORT query:
- Linux (native_dyn)
- Linux (win32_dyn)

Veloman Yunkan b0f65a02f2 Server can be started on a random free port
If the server is started with a port value of 0, it binds to a random
free port. The bound port can be obtained with a `getPort()` method.

Veloman Yunkan 9bf6d0621f Introducing 1st real unit test of the server
Added a new unit test 'test/server.cpp'. The pre-existing unit test
test/kiwixserve.cpp tests kiwixlib indirectly by running the kiwix-serve
executable which may be built with another version of the library.

Included with this commit is the cpp-httplib C++ HTTP/HTTPS library
(https://github.com/yhirose/cpp-httplib, v0.5.11).
The new file test/httplib.h was copied from
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yhirose/cpp-httplib/v0.5.11/httplib.h
