More values other than chunked defined in Transfer-Encoding header leads to decode failure
According to https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#page-29, people can specify multiple values for `Transfer-Encoding` HTTP header,  like: `Transfer-Encoding: gzip, chunked`, but Netty does not recognize it as a chunked request in this case.

### Expected behavior
There is no exception in server, and client should get the server response.

### Actual behavior
Exception found in server:

```
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: text is empty (possibly HTTP/0.9)
