Loïc Hoguin c930327fbf Remove cowboy_req:transport/1 
It was added to help with response body streaming functions.
But it was a clumsy solution that we discarded in favor of
passing socket and transport to said function. It was also
very odd compared to the rest of the cowboy_req interface.

If you used this function before, worry not, here's its
proper equivalent.

[Socket, Transport] = cowboy_req:get([socket, transport], Req)

Cowboy

Cowboy is a small, fast and modular HTTP server written in Erlang.

Goals

Cowboy aims to provide a complete HTTP stack in a small code base. It is optimized for low latency and low memory usage, in parts because it uses binary strings.

Cowboy provides routing capabilities, selectively dispatching requests to handlers written in Erlang.

Because it uses Ranch for managing connections, Cowboy can easily be embedded in any other application.

No parameterized module. No process dictionary. Clean Erlang code.

Getting Started
