Comment (by sskras):

 I debbuged the ytdl and found out that in case of my Microsoft Stream
 video it builds 9598 bytes long http header. Here it's structure, broken
 down and simplified:

 {{{

 Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate

 }}}

 I found an article about the max. header size support for http requests:
 https://www.geekersdigest.com/max-http-request-header-size-server-
 comparison/

 According to it, only five popular implementations use 8k or lower limit
 for the http header.
 Another five implementations use 16k limit.
 The rests six implementation use 32k or more (up to 2M on IIS 4.x).

 I think it's reasonable to increase the `HTTP_HEADERS_SIZE` to 16k (as is
 seen in my example).
