Pipeable functions for building HTTP requests

```elm
import Http
import HttpBuilder
import Json.Decode as Decode
import Json.Encode as Encode
import Url.Builder as UrlBuilder

type Status a = Loading | Loaded a | Failure

type alias Model = { items : Status (List String) }

itemsDecoder : Decode.Decoder (List String)
itemsDecoder =
Decode.list Decode.string

itemEncoder : String -> Encode.Value
itemEncoder item =
Encode.object
[ ("item", Encode.string item) ]

{-| addItem will send a post request to
`"http://example.com/api/items?hello=world"` with the given JSON body and a
custom header. It'll try to decode with `itemsDecoder`.

-}
addItem : String -> Cmd Msg
addItem item =
UrlBuilder.crossOrigin
"http://example.com"
[ "api", "items" ]
[ UrlBuilder.string "hello" "world" ]
|> HttpBuilder.post
|> HttpBuilder.withHeader "X-My-Header" "Some Header Value"
|> HttpBuilder.withJsonBody (itemEncoder item)
|> HttpBuilder.withTimeout 10000
|> HttpBuilder.withExpect (Http.expectJson GotItem itemsDecoder)
|> HttpBuilder.request

type Msg = GotItem (Result Http.Error (List String))

update : Msg -> Model -> ( Model, Cmd Msg )
update msg model =
case msg of
GotItem (Ok items) ->
( { model | items = Loaded items }
, Cmd.none
)

GotItem (Err err) ->
( { model | items = Failure } , Cmd.none)

```
