** [bugs:#1473] Incomplete FTPS transfers through HTTP proxy**

When doing a FTPS connection through a HTTP proxy (Blue Coat ProxySG) and downloading a file using a clear data channel through the same proxy, the downloaded file is truncated.
As far as I can see it looks like curl is considering the "Connection established" header from the proxy as part of the file, and so closes the file transfer some bytes too early.
This happens with curl 7.40.0 on RedHat 6.3:
curl 7.40.0 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.40.0 OpenSSL/1.0.1e zlib/1.2.3 c-ares/1.10.0 libidn/1.18 libssh2/1.4.3
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap ldaps pop3 pop3s rtsp scp sftp smb smbs smtp smtps telnet tftp 
Features: AsynchDNS IDN IPv6 Largefile GSS-API Kerberos SPNEGO NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz UnixSockets Metalink 
This is the command line I use:
curl --trace-ascii - -k --ftp-ssl-control --disable-epsv --proxy <proxyIP>:3128 --proxytunnel ftp://<ftpUser>:<ftpPassword>@<serverIP>//testpub.xml
The same operation works fine with older curl versions. It has been tested to work with versions 7.19.7, 7.25.0, 7.26.0 and 7.27.0, while it does NOT work with versions 7.29, 7.31, 7.38, 7.39 and 7.40, although I can't confirm the behaviour was always exactly the same (for example, I recall that with 7.29 the transfer just timed out).
I attach a zip file containing a sample XML file I was downloading from the server, and the full --trace-ascii logs from 7.19.7 and 7.40.0 containing also curl -V output and the used command line.
In the trace for version 7.40 you can see that the transfer is interrupted before the complete XML file is downloaded.
