http: reject control characters in http.request()
Unsanitized paths containing line feed characters can be used for header injection and request splitting so reject them with an exception. There seems to be no reasonable use case for allowing control characters (characters <= 31) while there are several scenarios where they can be used to exploit software bugs so reject control characters altogether.
