Ignore HttpError when the HTTP status code is 200 and at least some data was received

Seen on the german eBay site, when logging into "Mein eBay".

The Problem is that the gzip-stream sent by the server is correct, but does not have an end-of-file marker (zcat says "unexpected end of file"). Other browsers (Chrome, Firefox) do load the page without any error messages.

I attach a patch which fixes this problem, and does show all available content when the server has sent a status code of 200. Potentially, incomplete pages could be shown with this patch. I don't think that's an issue tough, because otherwise the QWebPage's error page is shown instead of any data.
