[#45] replace http.py with the Requests library

- Note the following exception replacements:
  mwclient.errors.HTTPError -> requests.exceptions.ConnectionError
  mwclient.errors.HTTPStatusError -> requests.exceptions.HTTPError
  mwclient.errors.HTTPRedirectError -> requests.exceptions.TooManyRedirects

- Removed the `compability.old_upload` method, which was used for
  MediaWiki < 1.16.

- Requests automatically decompresses gzip-encoded responses, and
  does its best to decode response content to unicode when possible.
