Arun Kulshreshtha bfc1eea7dd http-client: add non-consuming versions of Request builder methods
Summary:
The `Request` builder's methods currently take `self` by value, which was intended to make it easy to create new `Request`s in a fluent style without assignment. Unfortunately, it turns out that this complicates situations where we need to modify a `Request` in-place.

The ideal solution would be to change `Request`'s builder methods to take `&mut self` instead [1]. I tried doing this, but unfortunately there are too many other parts of the current design that rely on the existing behavior in ways that are difficult to change (particularly around the creation of streaming and async requests).

As a workaround, this diff simply adds matching `fn set_X(&mut self, ...) -> &mut Self` methods for each builder method on `Request`. The existing consuming methods have been rewritten in terms of those methods to prevent duplication of the actual method contents.

Given that all of the consuming builders now contain essentially the same body, it seems like we could reduce the verbosity here by using a macro. Unfortunately, I'm not sufficiently experienced with writing nontrivial macros to come up with something quickly, but I do think that it would be a good idea to eventually use a macro here.

[1]: In fact, it turns out that [this is considered a better practice](https://github.com/rust-lang/api-guidelines/discussions/81) when designing builders in Rust -- as long as the terminal method of the builder chain returns the built struct by value, it is still possible to create a new instance without assignment. This does mean, however, that we cannot easily move things from the builder to the final struct without using tricks like `Option::take` and `mem::swap`, since the signature of the terminal method would be `(&mut self) -> Self`).
