http_open(+Address, -Stream, +Options)
======================================
/** Make HTTP requests.
Yields Stream to read the body of an HTTP reply from Address.
Address is a list of characters, and includes the method. Both HTTP
and HTTPS are supported.
Options supported:
* method(+Method): Sets the HTTP method of the call. Method can be get (default), head, delete, post, put or patch.
* data(+Data): Data to be sent in the request. Useful for POST, PUT and PATCH operations.
* size(-Size): Unifies with the value of the Content-Length header
* request_headers(+RequestHeaders): Headers to be used in the request
* headers(-ListHeaders): Unifies with a list with all headers returned in the response
* status_code(-Code): Unifies with the status code of the request (200, 201, 404, ...)
Example:
?- http_open("https://github.com/mthom/scryer-prolog", S, []).
%@ S = '$stream'(0x7fcfc9e00f00).

This library contains the predicate http\_open/3 which allows you to perform HTTP(S) calls.
Useful for making API calls, or parsing websites. It uses Hyper underneath.
