Some services (e.g. Docker) use Unix sockets to front HTTP traffic - I'd like to support making Vegeta call these services for load testing per curl (--unix-socket /path/to/socket)
Background
I'm already using vegeta for other load testing and benchmarking for straight HTTP and HTTP/2 services - and wasn't able to find a decent tester that supports HTTP/1.1 over unix sockets.
Workarounds
Nothing simple beyond putting an Nginx in front of the socket
