Packaging: Add new http package for Debian

[SipSeb]

The new module contains the http_client and http_async_client module.

A few difficulties with this change:

1. Modules are right now grouped by lib dependencies. This caused the http_client module to end up in the kamailio-utils-modules package. No one would ever search for it there.
2. I tried to package a kamailio-http_async-modules package, but this isn't a valid Debian package name. But when renaming it into kamailio-http-modules, it felt wrong to include just the async http client and leave the http_client module stuck in the utils package, where no one would look for it. So I moved the http_client package, too.
3. The package depends on libevent, which is actually just a dependency of http_async_client. http_client would compile without. I don't know whether this breaks any policies.

Anything we can do for this pull request? @linuxmaniac @miconda

IIRC @linuxmaniac added some note in the description of utils package to highlight it has the http client. I am fine with whatever, @linuxmaniac can choose what's easier from maintenance and debian project point of view.
