fix: Fix PayloadProcessor response payload race condition (#120)

Prevent incorrectly empty logged payloads:
- Do not attempt to avoid slicing the response bytebuf in the case that a
  PayloadProcessor is configured
- Do not attempt to avoid some additional refcount updates in the case
  status != OK

Resolves #111
