+/**
+ `AFHTTPClient` captures the common patterns of communicating with an web application over HTTP. It encapsulates information like base URL, authorization credentials, and HTTP headers, and uses them to construct and manage the execution of HTTP request operations.
+ 
+ ## Automatic Content Parsing
+ 
+ Instances of `AFHTTPClient` may specify which types of requests it expects and should handle by registering HTTP operation classes for automatic parsing. Registered classes will determine whether they can handle a particular request, and then construct a request operation accordingly in `enqueueHTTPRequestOperationWithRequest:success:failure`.
+ 
+ ## Subclassing Notes
+ 
+ In most cases, one should create an `AFHTTPClient` subclass for each website or web application that your application communicates with. It is often useful, also, to define a class method that returns a singleton shared HTTP client in each subclass, that persists authentication credentials and other configuration across the entire application.
+ 
+ ## Methods to Override
+ 
+ To change the behavior of all url request construction for an `AFHTTPClient` subclass, override `requestWithMethod:path:parameters`.
+ 
+ To change the behavior of all request operation construction for an `AFHTTPClient` subclass, override `HTTPRequestOperationWithRequest:success:failure`.
+ 
+ ## Default Headers
+ 
+ By default, `AFHTTPClient` sets the following HTTP headers:
+ 
+ - `Accept-Encoding: gzip`
+ - `Accept-Language: (comma-delimited preferred languages), en-us;q=0.8`
+ - `User-Agent: (generated user agent)`
+ 
+ You can override these HTTP headers or define new ones using `setDefaultHeader:value:`.
+ 
+ ## URL Construction Using Relative Paths
+ 
+ Both `-requestWithMethod:path:parameters:` and `-multipartFormRequestWithMethod:path:parameters:constructingBodyWithBlock:` construct URLs from the path relative to the `-baseURL`, using `NSURL +URLWithString:relativeToURL:`. Below are a few examples of how `baseURL` and relative paths interact:
+ 
+    NSURL *baseURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://example.com/v1/"];  
+    [NSURL URLWithString:@"foo" relativeToURL:baseURL];                  // http://example.com/v1/foo
+    [NSURL URLWithString:@"foo?bar=baz" relativeToURL:baseURL];          // http://example.com/v1/foo?bar=baz
+    [NSURL URLWithString:@"/foo" relativeToURL:baseURL];                 // http://example.com/foo
+    [NSURL URLWithString:@"foo/" relativeToURL:baseURL];                 // http://example.com/v1/foo
+    [NSURL URLWithString:@"/foo/" relativeToURL:baseURL];                // http://example.com/foo/
+    [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://example2.com/" relativeToURL:baseURL]; // http://example2.com/
+
+ Also important to note is that a trailing slash will be added to any `baseURL` without one, which would otherwise cause unexpected behavior when constructing URLs using paths without a leading slash.
+
+ ## NSCoding / NSCopying Conformance
+ 
+ `AFHTTPClient`  conforms to the `NSCoding` and `NSCopying` protocols, allowing operations to be archived to disk, and copied in memory, respectively. There are a few minor caveats to keep in mind, however:
+ 
+ - Archives and copies of HTTP clients will be initialized with an empty operation queue.
+ - NSCoding cannot serialize / deserialize block properties, so an archive of an HTTP client will not include any reachability callback block that may be set.

+ @discussion When uploading over a 3G or EDGE connection, requests may fail with "request body stream exhausted". Setting a maximum packet size and delay according to the recommended values (`kAFUploadStream3GSuggestedPacketSize` and `kAFUploadStream3GSuggestedDelay`) lowers the risk of the input stream exceeding its allocated bandwidth. Unfortunately, as of iOS 6, there is no definite way to distinguish between a 3G, EDGE, or LTE connection. As such, it is not recommended that you throttle bandwidth based solely on network reachability. Instead, you should consider checking for the "request body stream exhausted" in a failure block, and then retrying the request with throttled bandwidth.
