This change also drops the principle that fields with the same keys would be
grouped together. This was initially inspired by Boost::Beast, but it means a
lot of extra copying of data when adding/organizing the list, as well as
inefficient querying on each add. Now that the design choice is to fully go
for the raw string as underlying data storage, that choice is not necessary.
In the future it may be able to emulate the grouping or retrieving of lists
of values in the API, rather than as a fundamental principle of the data
storage.

BHttpSession::Execute() moves the request into the session, and returns a future BHttpResponse
object. Currently implemented are resolving the hostname, and opening the connection.
There is some scaffolding for the actual data transfer.

This is a generic error type that can be used by multiple protocols to describe errors that can
occur while processing a request. The error type supports adding an additional error code in cases
where there is an underlying system error.
The type will be used to describe errors that occur while processing requests by BHttpSession, and
it is generally going to be thrown by the receiving BHttpResult.

Incomplete class, but will provide the basis to start working on the internals of the BHttpSession.

Objects of this class describe a HTTP request. It contains several convenience
functions that will allow a user to describe the properties of the request.
More options to be added later.

This class provides defaults and performs basic validation for HTTP Methods as
defined by the standard. They will be used in conjunction with a future
BHttpRequest class.

HTTP messages (requests and responses) have a header section that can contain
HTTP headers. These headers consist of name, value pairs. This class can be
used to query the headers on a response, and build a list of headers for a
request.
The internal implementation is designed around two different methods of storing
the underlying data. For HTTP requests, the name, value pairs are stored as
owned BString objects. For responses, the assumption is that there is a byte
buffer that contains the data and that has the same lifetime as the BHttpFields
object. The name, value pairs will then be stored as std::string_view to the
underlying buffer.
Still to do is:
- The method to convert a BHttpFields list into a string buffer to transmit.
- The method to parse a string buffer and turn it into a BHttpFields object.
