Title:
  apt update hangs when repository url is redirect url

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in apt source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released
Status in apt source package in Artful:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  When using redirect url on /etc/apt/sources.list

  apt update command hangs

  this is affected with commit
  https://anonscm.debian.org/git/apt/apt.git/commit/?id=dd547ebaffd2aceb42e2908f1d5f0ab386af6cb1

  In my test, moving below[1] code after[2]

  [1]
  ###
  if (ContentLength == 0)
      return true;
  ###
  [2]
  if (Encoding == Closes)
      Encoding = Stream;

  ###

  it worked fine.

  [Test Case]

  echo "deb http://packages.cloudfoundry.org/debian stable main" >
  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cloudfoundry-cli.list

  apt update

  [Regression]
  Could cause some other zero-content redirects to break again (seems unlikely...).
