This is my first port with code from PEAR, so I hope I got
it right. I based it off of www/pear-HTTP.
The HTTP_Client class wraps around HTTP_Request and provides
a higher level interface for performing multiple HTTP
requests.
Features:
* Manages cookies and referrers between requests
* Handles HTTP redirection
* Has methods to set default headers and request parameters
* Implements the Subject-Observer design pattern: the base class sends
events to listeners that do the response processing.
