Do note remove `Content-Type` when `render :body`
`render :body` should just not set the `Content-Type` header. By removing the header, it breaks the compatibility with other parts. After this commit, `render :body` will returns `text/html` content type, sets by default from `ActionDispatch::Response`, and it will preserve the overridden content type if you override it. Fixes #14197, #14238 This partially reverts commit 3047376870d4a7adc7ff15c3cb4852e073c8f1da.
