hgweb.cgi: fix internal WSGI emulation (issue3804)

The internal WSGI emulation in wsgicgi.py was not fully WSGI compliant and
assumed that all responses sent a body. With 3fbdbeab38cc that caused a real
bug when using hgweb.cgi.

wsgicgi.py will now make sure headers always are sent, using the pattern from
PEP 333 and similar to how it is done in c007e5c54b16.
