LWP-Protocol-AnyEvent-http

LWP performs a number of blocking calls when trying
to process requests. This makes it unfriendly to event-driven
systems and cooperative multitasking system such as Coro.

This module makes LWP more friendly to these systems
by plugging in an HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS protocol implementor
powered by AnyEvent and AnyEvent::HTTP.

In short, it allows AnyEvent callbacks and Coro threads
to execute when LWP is blocked. (Please let me know
at <[email protected]> what other system this helps
so I can add tests and add a mention.)

All LWP features and configuration options should still be
available when using this module.
