Module backend 

HTTP transport abstraction.

The default backend is ReqwestBackend. Inject a custom HttpBackend via ClientBuilder::backend for tests or alternate transports.

Buffered responses use HttpBackend::execute. Streaming responses use HttpBackend::execute_stream (implemented by ReqwestBackend by default).
