#698: HTTP vs MIME events

---------------------+-----------------
 The way the ``mime_*`` and ``http_entity_*`` events are structure is a
 mess:

 - First, I think we should have only a single set of events for all MIME
 data.

 - the ``mime_*`` events don't come with ``is_orig``.

 - ``http_header`` vs. ``mime_one_header``

 - ``http_entity_data`` delivers segments of size
 ``http_entity_data_delivery_size`` while ``mime_entity_data`` delivers
 complete entities (and ``mime_segment_data`` delivers segments…)

 - There are further inconsistencies I didn't record.
