Add the early_error cowboy_stream callback 
This callback is called when an error occurs before the request
(including headers, excluding body) was fully received. The
init/3 callback will not be called. The callback receives the
partial Req object (possibly empty), the reason for the error
and the response command that the server will send. It allows
you to be aware of the error and possibly modify the response
before it is sent.

= Cowboy

Cowboy is a small, fast and modern HTTP server for Erlang/OTP.

== Goals

Cowboy aims to provide a *complete* HTTP stack in a *small* code base.
It is optimized for *low latency* and *low memory usage*, in part
because it uses *binary strings*.

Cowboy provides *routing* capabilities, selectively dispatching requests
to handlers written in Erlang.

Because it uses Ranch for managing connections, Cowboy can easily be
*embedded* in any other application.

Cowboy is *clean* and *well tested* Erlang code.
