httpclient.nim Fixes #14794 and an issue where content-header is not set on postContent (#18208)

* Fixed missing newline after bound marker in mulipart post (#14794) and a problem where calling postContent with multipart data does not set content-length header.

* Update lib/pure/httpclient.nim

* Added comment outlining the reason for changes to httpclient.nim and added tests to ensure that multipart post has a newline at the end of the body, and that the content-length header is present.

* Fixed typo in comments.

* Removed redundant blank lines in thttpclient_standalone.nim.
