       Provides an HTTP Cxn class and based on LWP.  The LWP backend uses pure Perl and persistent connections.

       This class does Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn, whose documentation provides more information, and
       Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Is_Sync.

perform_request()
           ($status,$body) = $self->perform_request({
               # required
               method      => 'GET|HEAD|POST|PUT|DELETE',
               path        => '/path/of/request',

               # optional
               data        => $body_as_string,
               mime_type   => 'application/json',
               timeout     => $timeout
           });

       Sends the request to the associated Elasticsearch node  and  returns  a  $status  code  and  the  decoded
       response $body, or throws an error if the request failed.

       Search::Elasticsearch::Cxn::LWP  uses IO::Socket::SSL to support HTTPS.  By default, no validation of the
       remote host is performed.

       This behaviour can be changed by passing  the  "ssl_options"  parameter  with  any  options  accepted  by
       IO::Socket::SSL. For instance, to check that the remote host has a trusted certificate, and to avoid man-
       in-the-middle attacks, you could do the following:

           use Search::Elasticsearch;

           my $es = Search::Elasticsearch->new(
               cxn   => 'LWP',
               nodes => [
                   "https://node1.mydomain.com:9200",
                   "https://node2.mydomain.com:9200",
               ],
               ssl_options => {
                   verify_hostname     => 1,
                   SSL_ca_file         => '/path/to/cacert.pem'
               }
           );

       If  the  remote  server cannot be verified, an Search::Elasticsearch::Error will be thrown - LWP does not
       allow us to detect that the connection error was due to invalid SSL.

       If you want your client to present its own certificate to the remote server, then use:

           use Search::Elasticsearch;

           my $es = Search::Elasticsearch->new(
               cxn   => 'LWP',
               nodes => [
                   "https://node1.mydomain.com:9200",
                   "https://node2.mydomain.com:9200",
               ],
               ssl_options => {
                   verify_hostname     => 1,
                   SSL_ca_file         => '/path/to/cacert.pem',
                   SSL_use_cert        => 1,
                   SSL_cert_file       => '/path/to/client.pem',
                   SSL_key_file        => '/path/to/client.pem',
               }
           );
