Oleg Grenrus bc3f61d615 Add Servant.API.Modifiers to servant 
Changes Header, ReqBody and QueryParam to take a modifier list.

Resolves https://github.com/haskell-servant/servant/issues/856

ResponseHeader story turns to be somewhat ugly, but it can be made
elegant when https://github.com/haskell-servant/servant/issues/841 is
implemnted, then we can omit HList aka Header Heterogenous List
implementation.

- servant-server changes:

  Writing server side intepretations is quite simple using
  `unfoldRequestArgument`, which makes Header and QueryParam look quite
  the same.

  `ReqBody` cannot be easily made optional with current design (what that
  would mean: No Content-Type Header?), so that dimensions isn't used
  there.

- Add HasLink for all the rest ComprehensiveAPI combinators
- Add 'tricky' Header', QueryParam' endpoints to ComprehensiveAPI
- servant-docs: Quick'n'dirty implementation. Don't use modifiers information (yet).

servant-client-core

servant

HTTP-client-agnostic client functions for servant APIs.

This library should mainly be of interest to backend- and combinator-writers.

For backend-writers

If you are creating a new backend, you'll need to:

  1. Define a RunClient instance for your datatype (call it MyMonad)
  2. Define a ClientLike instance. This will look like:
instance ClientLike (MyMonad a) (MyMonad a) where
  mkClient = id
  1. Re-export the module Servant.Client.Core.Reexport so that your end-users can be blissfully unaware of 'servant-client-core', and so each backend-package comes closer to the warm hearth of the drop-in-replacement equivalence class.

For combinator-writers

You'll need to define a new HasClient instance for your combinator. There are plenty of examples to guide you in the HasClient module.
