    Don't provide Content-Type if it is text/plain, for back-compat
    
    Prior to af919ef, sending a "Content-Type" field would result in:
        # Could not create ticket.
        # Content-Type: Unknown field
    
    As af919ef causes all bin/rt requests to send a Content-Type, this makes
    it no longer interoperable with RT servers running versions prior to
    4.0.14.
    
    Preserve backwards compatibility by not sending the Content-Type field
    if it is "text/plain".
