Make gen_tcp:recv/2 consistent with ssl:recv/2
When the HTTP packet mode has been enabled for a socket, the ssl and gen_tcp modules have different error indications when there is an error while parsing the HTTP header: ssl:recv(SSLSocket, 0) -> {ok, {http_error, _Str}} gen_tcp:recv(Socket, 0) -> {error, {http_error, _Str}} We have decided to change gen_tcp:recv/2 to behave the same way as ssl:recv/2. That means that there will be always be an ok tuple if data could be succefully read from the socket, and an error tuple if there was a read error at the socket level.
