There is no one supported.  I would recommend using chunked filter 
instead.  Chunked encoding is a core part of http, and hence 
chunked filter is essential part of nginx's http functionality.  
Trying to replace it isn't supported and won't work well.

(And yes, I know the basic and I believe the only reason why you 
are trying to avoid chunked filter: it used to consume memory for 
long-lived connections.  This is no longer true since nginx 1.1.4, 
and I belive there is no real reason to avoid using it now.)
