Implement basic HTTP client

Issue Type:	Improvement
Assignee:	Unassigned
Created:	2019/09/24 3:51 PM
Priority:	Normal
Reporter:	Josh Cooper

Implement an httpclient abstraction over Net::HTTP for making GET requests. It should:

Return puppet response objects, not Net::HTTP
Raise puppet exceptions, not Net::HTTP exceptions
Use persistent HTTP connections
Observe connection and read timeouts
Observe proxy settings or env variables
Send User-Agent and X-Puppet-Version HTTP headers
Support gzip and inflate de/compression
Support server basic authentication
Escape query parameters and request paths
Uses the default puppet ssl context, which contains the verification mode, CA certs, CRLs, etc
