dec25c3e14 MINOR: httpclient: support payload within a buffer
httpclient_req_gen() takes a payload argument which can be use to put a
payload in the request. This payload can only fit a request buffer.

This payload can also be specified by the "body" named parameter within
the lua. httpclient.

It is also used within the CLI httpclient when specified as a CLI
payload with "<<".

746e6f3f8e MINOR: httpclient/lua: supports headers via named arguments
Migrate the httpclient:get() method to named arguments so we can
specify optional arguments.

This allows to pass headers as an optional argument as an array.

The () in the method call must be replaced by {}:

	local res = httpclient:get{url="http://127.0.0.1:9000/?s=99",
	            headers= {["X-foo"]  = { "salt" }, ["X-bar"] = {"pepper" }}}

039cc083ff REGTESTS: lua: test the httpclient:get() feature
This reg-test is heavily inspired by the lua_socket.vtc one.

It replaces the HTTP/1.1 request made manually with a socket object with
an httpclient object.
