The handle to a Curl request is now kept by the CurlRequest instances, instead of being shared by all requests. This makes it possible to execute concurrent HTTP requests.
Intro two new services on Text to execute simple HTTP requests. While these new services are useful to simple scripts, if more control is needed you should still use CurlHTTPRequest.
Text::http_get makes a GET request and returns the response body.
Text::http_download makes a GET request and saves the response body to a file.
