http: document how to reference http resources

[p-shahi]

Paraphrasing @MarcoPolo "HTTP semantics can run on top of any transport. So these need to be able to be defined on top of any multiaddr not just ones that end in /http" (as documented in https://github.com/libp2p/specs/pull/550)

Context for this issue is that Juan asked that we define a way to reference HTTP resources in multiaddrs sooner rather than later because:

• As soon as we introduce HTTP semantics to libp2p folks will want to reference HTTP resources in multiaddrs.
• HTTP resources can be defined outside of a specific protocol, so it's not enough to prefix them with a custom multicodec (as suggested in #550).

This introduces a new way of using Multiaddrs that we haven't seen much in practice (With the exception of IPNI's use of a custom multicodec httpath https://github.com/ipni/go-libipni/issues/42). Multiaddrs have primarily been used as a way of describing how to reach a peer. With this, multiaddrs will describe how to reach a resource.

My current thinking is that /httpath (or /httppath, my preference) is a reasonable solution to this. This can be appended to any transport and defines where an HTTP resource exists and the transport used to address the peer that has this resource.
