Remove connect:close header workaround

[joern]

jQuery contains a workaround for a bug in pre 1.5 Firefox that can be safely removed (anything older then FF 1.5 isn't supported anyway).

The relevant lines:

// Make sure the browser sends the right content length
if ( xml.overrideMimeType )
	xml.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
