Cross-Site ETag Length Leak

Turns the ETag header into a cross-site oracle: ETag encodes response size in hex, so crossing a hex-digit boundary changes its length by one byte, echoed back in If-None-Match, which can push a padded request past the server header limit into a 431. Chromium then replaces rather than pushes the history entry, so history.length reveals the answer character by character.
