/*
 * Helper function that creates an outbound HTTP connection.
 *
 * `url` is the URL to fetch. It must be properly URL-encoded, e.g. have
 * no spaces, etc. By default, `mg_connect_http()` sends the Connection and
 * Host headers. `extra_headers` is an extra HTTP header to send, e.g.
 * `"User-Agent: my-app\r\n"`.
 * If `post_data` is NULL, then a GET request is created. Otherwise, a POST
 * request is created with the specified POST data. Note that if the data being
 * posted is a form submission, the `Content-Type` header should be set
 * accordingly (see example below).
 *
 * Examples:
 *
 * ```c
 *   nc1 = mg_connect_http(mgr, ev_handler_1, "http://www.google.com", NULL,
 *                         NULL);
 *   nc2 = mg_connect_http(mgr, ev_handler_1, "https://github.com", NULL, NULL);
 *   nc3 = mg_connect_http(
 *       mgr, ev_handler_1, "my_server:8000/form_submit/",
 *       "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n",
 *       "var_1=value_1&var_2=value_2");
 * ```
