Migration: recommend a two step migration

[sagikazarmark]

I think most people fear from breaking BC. I absolutely agree with them, that's why I think we should recommend them a two step migration.

1. Use HTTPlug internally, don't change the public API. In most cases this is a simple constructor injection of an HTTP Client. We could just wrap this around one of our adapter and use HTTPlug API internally.
2. Once the author is confident that the package is stable and HTTPlug works, he can change the public API as well, fully decoupling the package from the actual implementation.

good idea. it should be part of a "migrating to httplug guide"

[sagikazarmark]

Yes. The idea came from the fact that people might not get the idea of httplug, so they might not want to use it for various reasons. One of them can be breaking BC, which is clearly not necessary with this two-step migration.
