Announcing LittleProxy 0.1 based on Netty

[Adam Fisk]

It's proving slightly more involved than I expected to get a solid Netty
patch together, Stephen -- looks like it'll take me a little longer. We
basically just need to make the protocol version modifiable in
DefaultHttpResponse/HttpMessage and change it in HttpMessageDecoder when we
add chunked encoding, but fatigue is getting the best of me. Should be done
soon though.
