### Instance Properties
#### `request.chunkedEncoding`
A Boolean specifying whether the request will use HTTP chunked transfer encoding or not. Defaults to false. The property is readable and writable,
however it can be set only before the first write operation as the HTTP headers are not yet put on the wire. Trying to set the `chunkedEncoding` property
after a write will throw an error.
Using chunked encoding is strongly recommended if you need to send a large request body as data will be streamed as small chunks instead of being internally buffered
in Electron memory.

An `IncomingMessage` instance has the following readable properties:
#### `response.statusCode`
An Integer indicating the HTTP response status code.
#### `response.statusMessage`
A String representing the HTTP status message.
#### `response.headers`
An Object representing the response HTTP headers.
#### `response.httpVersion`
A String indicating the HTTP protocol version number. Typical values are '1.0' or '1.1'. Additionally `httpVersionMajor` and
`httpVersionMinor` are two Integer-valued readable properties that return respectively the HTTP major and minor version numbers.
