Fix DefaultBinder empty body handling for unknown ContentLength

Fix issue where POST requests with empty bodies and ContentLength=-1
(unknown/chunked encoding) incorrectly fail with 415 Unsupported Media Type.

The DefaultBinder.BindBody method now properly detects truly empty bodies
when ContentLength=-1 by peeking at the first byte. If no content is found,
it returns early without error. If content exists, it reconstructs the body
to preserve the original data.

Fixes #2813
