+ * @param string $url      URL to get (http://...)
+ * @param int    $timeout  network timeout (in seconds)
+ * @param int    $maxBytes maximum downloaded bytes (default: 4 MiB)

+ * @return array HTTP response headers, downloaded content

+ * Output format:

+ * Example:
+ *  list($headers, $data) = get_http_url('http://sebauvage.net/');
+ *  if (strpos($headers[0], '200 OK') !== false) {
+ *      echo 'Data type: '.htmlspecialchars($headers['Content-Type']);
