With payload.output === 'stream', there is no guarantee or requirement that the user consumes the incoming payload. When a response is sent with an unconsumed payload, the connection needs to be closed to signal that the payload has been discarded. This is best done by adding the connection: close header to the response.

Note that node.js clients might not actually be able to handle such a response right now, due to nodejs/node#12339.

The test on this PR is flaky. I get a 400 Payload content length greater than maximum allowed: 11534336 about half the time. Looking at the test I don't see how that's possible, any idea ?
