status code : 411

Hi

UploadFile doesn't work for me.
resp, err := flickr.UploadFile(client, "/home/andrey/cat.jpg", nil)

It return the html page with error

<!-- status code : 411 -->
<!-- No Content Length : POST -->
<!-- host machine: r13.ycpi.dea.yahoo.net -->
<!-- timestamp: 1463678271.000 -->
<!-- url: https://up.flickr.com/services/upload/-->

http_client sets Transfer-Encoding: chunked header but doesn't set Content-Lenght header. I guess that's the reason.

I am on Xubuntu 16.04

$ go version
go version go1.6.2 linux/amd64

There is another flickr library https://github.com/mncaudill/go-flickr/ It calculate length manualy https://github.com/mncaudill/go-flickr/blob/master/flickr.go#L164

Thanks for the feedback @denisov I'll check this out asap

Still investigating but related to this: golang/go#14391
Works with go < 1.6.2 or v.1.6.2 with GODEBUG=http2client=0 env var set.

Thanks for letting me know

I don't like the fix for this bug but I wasn't able to understand why Flickr fails when we use the h2 client along with a chunked POST request.
Added a comment to remind for a further investigation.
