Better error reporting when HttpTransport recieves something else than an object stream

[erdi]

Don't know if it's easy or even possible, but it would be cool if HttpTransport put response headers in stacktrace when it fails to read the object stream and detects that the response is a valid http response here. That would help when for example your application is misconfigured and returns 401s for the remote control endpoint.

It should be. HttpUrlConnection is pretty flexible, but it's tricky to configure right.

+1 to this. Just reading this bug just helped me figure out how to fix my remote-control issue while upgrading to ratpack 0.9.13
