Feature Request: webseed support

[fakerybakery]

Hi,
Thanks for releasing rqbit! Any chance webseed/HTTP Sources support could be added?
Thanks!

I implemented WebSeed Support in my fork: https://github.com/StarCitizenToolBox/rqbit

Because of my own use case, I made some additional modifications to rqbit, and I'm not sure if the upstream will like it, so I won't be submitting a PR for now.

If anyone urgently needs WebSeed functionality, you can use my fork.

librqbit = { git = "https://github.com/StarCitizenToolBox/rqbit", rev = "1e281d545c068a4f5ec98553539cd46a159cad14" }

In my use case it is used to download single files up to 130GB+ and takes advantage of the nature of torrents to ensure files are not corrupted. It is currently designed to serve the highest download speeds for a single file and replaces aria2 which lacks active maintenance.
