023/**
024 * Represents a parsed <l>Transfer-Encoding</l> HTTP response header.
025 *
026 * <p>
027 * The form of encoding used to safely transfer the entity to the user.
028 * Currently defined methods are: chunked, compress, deflate, gzip, identity.
029 *
030 * <h5 class='figure'>Example</h5>
031 * <p class='bcode'>
032 *    Transfer-Encoding: chunked
033 * </p>
034 *
035 * <h5 class='topic'>RFC2616 Specification</h5>
036 *
037 * The Transfer-Encoding general-header field indicates what (if any) type of transformation has been applied to the
038 * message body in order to safely transfer it between the sender and the recipient.
039 * This differs from the content-coding in that the transfer-coding is a property of the message, not of the entity.
040 *
041 * <p class='bcode'>
042 *    Transfer-Encoding       = "Transfer-Encoding" ":" 1#transfer-coding
043 * </p>
044 *
045 * <p>
046 * Transfer-codings are defined in section 3.6. An example is:
047 *
048 * <p class='bcode'>
049 *    Transfer-Encoding: chunked
050 * </p>
051 *
052 * <p>
053 * If multiple encodings have been applied to an entity, the transfer-codings MUST be listed in the order in which
054 * they were applied.
055 * Additional information about the encoding parameters MAY be provided by other entity-header fields not defined by
056 * this specification.
057 *
058 * <p>
059 * Many older HTTP/1.0 applications do not understand the Transfer-Encoding header.
