net/http: don't retry Transport requests if they have a body

This rolls back https://golang.org/cl/27117 partly, softening it so it
only retries POST/PUT/DELETE etc requests where there's no Body (nil
or NoBody). This is a little useless, since most idempotent requests
have a body (except maybe DELETE), but it's late in the Go 1.8 release
cycle and I want to do the proper fix.

The proper fix will look like what we did for http2 and only retrying
the request if Request.GetBody is defined, and then creating a new request
for the next attempt. See https://golang.org/cl/33971 for the http2 fix.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
