Upgrade libmicrohttpd to latest upstream release 0.9.7. Besides several bugfixes, this also removes the internally used GnuTLS version, removing the possibility of security problems in this component (no longer maintained within libmicrohttpd).

This involves an ABI bump which is necessary for the reasons outlined above.
