Opens a HTTP connection.
The HTTP method to use is specified in method, the server is
specified using host and port, and the path (including
a possible query) is specified using path.
The path may also contain a URI fragment, which will be ignored.
The Host header for the request will be set to the value
host:port. This can be overridden through the
HttpClientRequest interface before the request is sent. NOTE
if host is an IP address this will still be set in the Host
header.
For additional information on the sequence of events during an HTTP transaction, and the objects returned by the futures, see the overall documentation for the class HttpClient.
