Limit size of file to be downloaded
Is there any way to limit size of file to be downloaded by HTTPClient in case
if there is no content-length provided in HTTP response and file is something
like 50Mb in size?

The best way is to use getResponseBodyAsStream() and read only as many
bytes are you are willing to. If the response ends up being too long,
call HttpMethod.abort().
