http.client.HTTPConnection and HTTPResponse lackrepr implementations, producing the default unhelpful object repr:

>>>importhttp.client>>>http.client.HTTPConnection('example.com')<http.client.HTTPConnectionobjectat0x...>

These should show useful state at a glance:

>>>http.client.HTTPConnection('example.com')<HTTPConnectionexample.com:80>>>>http.client.HTTPSConnection('example.com')<HTTPSConnectionexample.com:443>

And for responses:

>>>r=conn.getresponse()>>>r<HTTPResponse [200OK]>

The module already has arepr on IncompleteRead, so there's precedent. This would help when debugging HTTP code in the REPL or debugger.
