[Bug 302024] Re: vlc playback of shoutcast stream is chirpy

[Sim IJskes]

It is not a true fix. The change makes sure that VLC does not request
the Icy-Metadata.

This is to make sure the streaming server replies without Icy-metadata.
Because if it does, the proxy changes the ICY 200 OK response into
HTTP/1.1 200 OK.

VLC thinks it is not an ICY stream, but the server does. The server
muxes icy-metadat into the stream, vlc does not demux this metadata and
feeds it directly to the mp3 decoder. mp3 decoder chirps and gets
confused.
