request response benchmarks added

[deepakdinesh1123]

I have added two request-response benchmarks

• default middleware
• HTTP methods

This looks good @deepakdinesh1123 let me have a play this afternoon 👍

I happened to stumble across this in my GH timeline yesterday (hi!), and just wanted to drop a quick note, apologies for barging in.

I don't think it's a substantial issue (and it's certainly better than nothing!) but these two additions (DefaultMiddleWareBench and HttpMethods) are also implicitly testing the performance characteristics of the RequestFactory and Client implementations, I think? If, for whatever reason, either of those got slower (or faster), there'd potentially be a deviation that looks more positive/negative than it actually is?

Hey @kezabelle 👋.

• "... it's certainly better than nothing!" — At this stage, exactly: getting some benchmarks in place is the start point.
• I'm hoping this will become an ongoing resource, so tweaks welcome. 😉
