Allow no response to be send when a connection is hijacked (#712)

* Allow no response to be send when a connection is hijacked

At the moment there is always a HTTP response before the connection gets
hijacked. This second option to Hijack() prevents this response from
being send.

Fixes: #698

* Add HijackSetNoResponse method instead
