/* HTTP Message API
* ----------------
* The idea behind this application programming interface (API) is to
* represent an HTTP response message as a concrete entity. The API
* functions allow the message to be built up systematically before
* transmission to a connected socket.
*
* The order of the functions in your program would look something like
* this:
* http_message_create()
* http_message_set_response()
* http_message_set_body() [optional if no body is required]
* http_message_add_headers() [optional if no additional headers are used]
* http_message_send()
* http_message_destroy()
*
* NOTE: No user data is stored in the http_message_t type; therefore,
* do not delete strings referenced by the http_message_t object
* before you call http_message_destroy(). By not copying data, the
* API functions are faster, but you must take greater care.
*
* (Side note: be _very_ careful when using stack allocated memory with
* this API. Bad things will happen if you try to pass the
* http_message_t out of the calling function since the stack
* allocated memory referenced by the http_message_t will no long
* exist.)
