Description
Currently LLRT has no support for the HTTP and HTTPS modules from node.js.
The only way to do http calls is to rely on the fetch call.
LLRT should support HTTP and HTTPS modules with a select set of features:
https://nodejs.org/api/http.html
https://nodejs.org/api/https.html
Advanced TLS capabilities should be omitted like custom certificate handling.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the Node.js http and https API references linked in the issue, then compare the requested modules with LLRT's existing fetch-based HTTP support. Define the supported feature subset, explicitly excluding advanced TLS capabilities such as custom certificate handling, and use that scope to determine when the compatibility work is complete.
