Description
It'd be really handy to replace the current builders with a set of builders for Request, Response, and URI that track the builder's state using some sort of typestate, allowing for compile-time checks that a Request/Response/URI were correctly built.

Research direction
Start by reading the current builders for Request, Response, and URI and determine which construction states need to be represented. Define what compile-time validation should guarantee and confirm that the three builders can replace error-returning construction without leaving required behavior unspecified.
