Ali Sabil fdd67b72a3 Fix the reading of the localhost MTU in the HTTP tests 
Sometimes the localhost interface has a different name from "lo",
this fix adds a helper function to read the MTU value when the
interface name starts with "lo".

Cowboy

Cowboy is a small, fast and modular HTTP server written in Erlang.

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 parts 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.

No parameterized module. No process dictionary. Clean Erlang code.
