http: support omitting data from traces

GIT_TRACE_CURL provides a way to debug what is being sent and received
over HTTP, with automatic redaction of sensitive information. But it
also logs data transmissions, which significantly increases the log file
size, sometimes unnecessarily. Add an option "GIT_TRACE_CURL_NO_DATA" to
allow the user to omit such data transmissions.
