is_request	`true` if this parser parses requests, `false` for responses.
value_type	The type of message returned by the parser.

Member Functions

content_length_remaining	Returns the remaining content length if known.
eager	Returns `true` if the eager parse option is set. — Set the eager parse option.
get	Returns the parsed message.

`isRequest`	Indicates whether a request or response will be parsed.
`Body`	The type used to represent the body. This must meet the requirements of Body.
`Allocator`	The type of allocator used with the `basic_fields` container.
