Commented Issue: StackOverflowException at large http message body processing by HttpContentMultipartExtensions [952]

We're using nightly nuget packages 2013-03-30. When we're trying to upload large files (for instance > 2Mb) and process it by using HttpContentMultipartExtensions we've got unhandled exception which crashes AppDomain:

"An unhandled exception of type 'System.StackOverflowException' occurred in Unknown Module."

Code sample is straightforward and looks like http://www.asp.net/web-api/overview/working-with-http/sending-html-form-data,-part-2

After research we've found that in MoveToNextSegmentAsync method exists recursive call:

```
private static async Task<bool> MoveToNextSegmentAsync(MultipartAsyncContext context)
{
...
if (!await MoveToNextSegmentAsync(context))
{
await MoveToNextPartAsync(context);
}
...
}
```

When large http body is processing this code fragment creates a really huge call stack which causes StackOverflowException and AppDomain crash.
