/**
* Represents a server-side HTTP response.
*
* An instance of this is created and associated to every instance of
* {@link HttpServerRequest} that.
*
* It allows the developer to control the HTTP response that is sent back to the
* client for a particular HTTP request.
*
* It contains methods that allow HTTP headers and trailers to be set, and for a body to be written out to the response.
*
* It also allows files to be streamed by the kernel directly from disk to the
* outgoing HTTP connection, bypassing user space altogether (where supported by
* the underlying operating system). This is a very efficient way of
* serving files from the server since buffers do not have to be read one by one
* from the file and written to the outgoing socket.
*
* It implements {@link io.vertx.core.streams.WriteStream} so it can be used with
* {@link io.vertx.core.streams.Pump} to pump data with flow control.
