[PATCH v2] relax requirements for Juniper hostname packet response

This fixes the "Unexpected response of size 3 after hostname packet" or "Invalid packet waiting for KMP 301" errors
which I get intermittently when connecting to an old Juniper NC server:

    $ openconnect --prot=nc -vvvv
    ...
    NCP-Version: 2
    ...
    > 0000: 18 00 00 04 00 00 00 0c 00 64 65 61 64 62 65 65
    > 0010: 66 2d 31 32 33 bb 01 00 00 00 00
    Read 3 bytes of SSL record
    < 0000: d2 01 00
    Read 465 bytes of SSL record

Here's what is going on: this server is (sometimes) concatenating the 3-byte
response packet together with the longer IP-configuration packet that
follows.  When they are concatenated together, the server sends only a
single 2-byte length prefix for both (0x01d2 = 466).
