Request a small MSS in web connection explicitly

Browse Source 
Sometimes equipment will not handle some header data, such as 802.1q tag.  Other times,
there's a jumbo NIC talking to a BMC that is not jumbo.

Workaround such situations by setting the MSS to 1456 explicitly, which fits in MTU 1500 plus
4 bytes for dot1q tag, if some intermediat device fails to handle that.
