QNetwork[http]: Discard or ignore corrupted cache entries

In an attempt to avoid situations like the linked bug-report from
happening again, discard cached entries with no headers and ignore
entries where the payload is smaller than what the header specified (if
it specified anything).

In a future revision we might want to add a length to the cache's
metadata, potentially with a checksum trailing the content.

Task-number: QTBUG-111397
Pick-to: 6.5 6.4 6.2
