We had a problem happening when assigning the returned *api.Error
to default 'error' type.
Things like "if err != nil" would not work even when *api.Error is nil
I'm not sure why this happens, but this is very confusing for the user
integrating on top. It is better that we just return plain go errors.

Apparently, cancelling the request context closes the response body
prematurely, before it's being fully read.

This allows taking advantage of connection keep alive by having the
api client re-use the same connection. Additionally, an option
to close connections after every request is provided.

This adds the pakage api/rest/client which implements a go-client
for the REST API component. It also update the ipfs-cluster-ctl
tool to rely on it.
Originally, I wanted this to live it in it's own separate repository,
but the api client uses /api/types.go, which is part of cluster.
Therefore it would need to import all of cluster as a dependency.
ipfs-cluster-ctl would also need to import go-ipfs-cluster-api-client
as a dependency, creating circular gx deps which would be a mess to
maintain.
Only the splitting of cluster in multiple repositories (at least for
api, rest, ipfs-cluster-ctl, rest/client and test) would allow better
dependency management by allowing rest/client and the ctl tool
to only import what is needed, but this is something which brings
maintenance costs and can probably wait a bit until cluster is more stable.
