fix(http1): reduce memory used with flatten write strategy

If the write buffer was filled with large bufs from the user, such that
it couldn't be fully written to the transport, the write buffer could
start to grow significantly as it moved its cursor without shifting over
the unwritten bytes.

This will now try to shift over the unwritten bytes if the next buf
wouldn't fit in the already allocated space.
