badwords: avoid 'simply'
It's mostly a filler word. I've read through each use of it in the code
base and did minor rephrasings when "simply" carried some meaning. The
overwhelming majority of cases, removing it improved the text
significantly. Inspired by #20793.

Closes #20822

Accept an HTTP version 0.9 response.

HTTP/0.9 is a response without headers and therefore you can also connect with this to non-HTTP servers and still get a response since curl transparently downgrades - if allowed.

HTTP/0.9 is disabled by default (added in 7.66.0)
