Title: Handle the case of an HTTP chunked stream being closed without a "last chunk" being sent

When receiving a chunked-encoding HTTP payload, Netty will sometimes close the stream without sending a "last" chunk. This change ensures that the lamina channel is closed when the underlying Netty channel is closed.

I'm not sure if the root cause is a Netty bug or a misbehaving server. I found this when calling Solr running on top of Tomcat. This change fixed the problem for me.
