[flutter_image] Fix : network image memory and nullsafety

[berhili098]

The memory issue arises from _Uint8ListBuilder allocating memory without a defined limit. In scenarios where large or continuous data streams are handled, this can result in excessive memory usage, leading to degraded performance or out-of-memory errors, especially on devices with limited resources.

To address this, the PR introduces a memory usage limit of 50MB. This ensures:

Controlled memory allocation, preventing _Uint8ListBuilder from exceeding reasonable thresholds.
Improved app stability and responsiveness, particularly on low-memory devices or environments with heavy workloads.
Protection against unintended memory leaks or inefficient resource usage.
This change aligns with the broader goal of improving resource management in the flutter_image package, alongside the newly added dispose() method, which cleans up HTTP client resources to prevent potential leaks.

Let me know if further clarification is needed or if you'd like specific examples illustrating the issue!

• Adds dispose() method to properly clean up HTTP client resources.
• Adds memory usage limit (50MB) to prevent excessive memory allocation in _Uint8ListBuilder.
• Improves null safety handling in HTTP request headers.
• Improves error messages for empty responses and failed requests.
• Updates documentation to reference latest HTTP RFC.

Pre-launch Checklist

• I read the Contributor Guide and followed the process outlined there for submitting PRs.
• I read the Tree Hygiene page, which explains my responsibilities.

• The title of the PR starts with the name of the package surrounded by square brackets, e.g. [shared_preferences]
• I linked to at least one issue that this PR fixes in the description above.
• I updated pubspec.yaml with an appropriate new version according to the pub versioning philosophy, or this PR is exempt from version changes.
• I updated CHANGELOG.md to add a description of the change, following repository CHANGELOG style, or this PR is exempt from CHANGELOG changes.
• I updated/added relevant documentation (doc comments with ///).
• I added new tests to check the change I am making, or this PR is test-exempt.

It looks like this pull request may not have tests. Please make sure to add tests before merging. If you need an exemption, contact "@test-exemption-reviewer" in the #hackers channel in Discord (don't just cc them here, they won't see it!).

If you are not sure if you need tests, consider this rule of thumb: the purpose of a test is to make sure someone doesn't accidentally revert the fix. Ask yourself, is there anything in your PR that you feel it is important we not accidentally revert back to how it was before your fix?

Reviewers: Read the Tree Hygiene page and make sure this patch meets those guidelines before LGTMing. The test exemption team is a small volunteer group, so all reviewers should feel empowered to ask for tests, without delegating that responsibility entirely to the test exemption group.

Thanks for the contribution!

I'm marking this as a draft pending completion of the checklist; please mark the PR as ready for review once all of the elements of the checklist are complete. When filing the issue, please be sure to include a clear and detailed description of the memory issue you are trying to address, since currently this PR introduces a (incorrectly versioned) breaking change without a clearly described motivation.
