WP_HTTP: Funnel all redirect requests through WP_HTTP::request() via wp_remote_request() to ensure that the proper transport is chosen for redirects. 
This change also moves PHP Streams from redirecting internally, to us handling the redirections in PHP, which brings a more consistent behaviour between transports.
Fixes #23682
