Add support to Xend XML-RPC server for HTTP/1.1 Keep-Alive.

This patch fixes a few bugs in the Python SimpleXMLRPC server and enables
HTTP/1.1 by default.  This allows a client to use Keep-Alive.  Keep-Alive
improves performance by eliminating the overhead of connection setup and,
more importantly, avoids credential caching when executing multiple
commands over a secure connection.
