vcr: Record 'HTTP' Calls to Disk

Record test suite 'HTTP' requests and replays them during future runs. A port of the Ruby gem of the same name (<https://github.com/vcr/vcr/>). Works by recording real 'HTTP' requests/responses on disk in 'cassettes', and then replaying matching responses on subsequent requests.
