Consider adding folded trailing header support #28869

@caesar-chen

Description

@caesar-chen

In RFC 2616, HTTP/1.1 header field values can be folded onto multiple lines. Later in RFC 7230, folded header is obsoleted.

Since our code supports folded headers (Header property) for compat reason - there are some servers still use it. We may want to add folded header support to TrailingHeaders property as well.

Also notice that:

  1. In RFC 7230, folded header is obsoleted.
  2. HTTP/2 doesn't have folded header concept.

We need to think if this is really needed.
