net/http/httputil: allow ReverseProxy to call ModifyResponse on failed requests

Previously when RoundTrip returned a non-nil error, the proxy returned a
StatusBadGateway error, instead of first calling ModifyResponse. This
commit first calls ModifyResponse, whether or not the error returned
from RoundTrip is nil.

Also closes response body when ModifyResponse returns an error. See #22658.

Fixes #21255
