Updated - I have guessed a bit on where best to locate the new specs so if they need to be moved/re-arranged just let me know |

Motivation
HTML supports adding a
pingattribute to<a>tags. In such cases, the browser sents a POST request to the set URL(s) before navigating to the new URL (See w3schools doc here and Mozilla docs on initiatorType which includespingas an option).Unfortunately, because these requests do not receive a server response Ferrum adds them to the list of
pending_connections, meaning that subsequent calls towait_for_idlewill timeout waiting for these never-will-complete requests.Changes
Request#response_expected?method to indicate if the request expects a response from the server (currently 'ping' is the only request I know of that would not get a response)Exchange#response_expected?that calls the request method. Note, ifrequest.nil?we default totrueto match the current behaviourExchange#finished?so that any requests that do not expect responses are now also considered 'finished'
