Title: 2 patches to speed up http with streams2

The first initializes the `Socket._connecting` member in the constructor.

The second inlines the logic in the `IncomingMessage._dump` method.

These two changes bring the streams2 performance up to par with streams1 on Darwin. However, it's still lagging behind on SmartOS and Linux, though this is an improvement.
