HTTP to HTTPS redirect forgets original method [urllib.request] #124815
Description
Bug report
Bug description:
>>> request = urllib.request.Request('https://wildorchard.com/collections/teaware', method='HEAD')
>>> response = urllib.request.urlopen(request)
>>> response.read()
b''
>>> request = urllib.request.Request('http://wildorchard.com/collections/teaware', method='HEAD')
>>> response = urllib.request.urlopen(request)
>>> response.read()
b'<!doctype html>\n<html class="no-js" lang="en">\n<head>\n\n\n In the first request everything works finde, the HEAD method doesn't return a response
body, subsequently response.read() gives a byte sequent of length zero.
In the second request, the final URL is the same, but something goes wrong, mostlikely
during redirect the method gets lost, since now the response body is not empty.
