    The nsIHTTPInstance class is the interface to an intance
    of the HTTP that acts on a per URL basis.

    There are a ton of things that an instance should hold
    but due to the lack of time I am letting those things
    be used from the old code base. Someday someone will
    step in and get rid of old code and put things here
    like socket, other connection data, etc.
