Add AllowRange option to disable HTTP Range usage
apt makes heavy usage of HTTP1.1 features including Range and If-Range. Sadly it is not obvious if the involved server(s) (and proxies) actually support them all. The Acquire::http::AllowRange option defaults to true as before, but now a user can disable Range usage if it is known that the involved server is not dealing with such requests correctly.
