9375660b64 LibHTTP+LibWeb+RequestServer: Move Fetch's HTTP header infra to LibHTTP
The end goal here is for LibHTTP to be the home of our RFC 9111 (HTTP
caching) implementation. We currently have one implementation in LibWeb
for our in-memory cache and another in RequestServer for our disk cache.

The implementations both largely revolve around interacting with HTTP
headers. But in LibWeb, we are using Fetch's header infra, and in RS we
are using are home-grown header infra from LibHTTP.

So to give these a common denominator, this patch replaces the LibHTTP
implementation with Fetch's infra. Our existing LibHTTP implementation
was not particularly compliant with any spec, so this at least gives us
a standards-based common implementation.

This migration also required moving a handful of other Fetch AOs over
to LibHTTP. (It turns out these AOs were all from the Fetch/Infra/HTTP
folder, so perhaps it makes sense for LibHTTP to be the implementation
of that entire set of facilities.)

f675cfe90f LibWeb: Store HTTP methods and headers as ByteString
The spec declares these as a byte sequence, which we then implemented as
a ByteBuffer. This has become pretty awkward to deal with, as evidenced
by the plethora of `MUST(ByteBuffer::copy(...))` and `.bytes()` calls
everywhere inside Fetch. We would then treat the bytes as a string
anyways by wrapping them in StringView everywhere.

We now store these as a ByteString. This is more comfortable to deal
with, and we no longer need to continually copy underlying storage (as
ByteString is ref-counted).

This work is largely preparatory for an upcoming HTTP header refactor.
