Description

When we issue a HEAD on the shared-file api, we sometimes get a 405 error.
This is due to the version of mod_wsgi

mod_wsgi rewrites HEAD request to GET in some cases (don't know exactly when, but it depends on apache output filter, and breaks centos7 and not ubuntu 16)
 Broken with wod_wsgi 3.4, works with mod_wsgi 4.3.0
 GET requests here a rewritten HEAD, Real GET while be send at another location by a rewrite (cond and rule in rudder-apache-relay-ssl.conf file)
 Some explanation: http://blog.dscpl.com.au/2009/10/wsgi-issues-with-http-head-requests.html
 Some workaround: https://github.com/GrahamDumpleton/mod_wsgi/issues/2

We fixed the problem for the shared folder we must do the same for the shared-file api
