For details about running httpx, see https://docs.projectdiscovery.io/tools/httpx/running.
httpx as a libraryhttpx can be used as a library by creating an instance of the Option struct and populating it with the same options that would be specified via CLI. Once validated, the struct should be passed to a runner instance (to be closed at the end of the program) and the RunEnumeration method should be called. A minimal example of how to do it is in the examples folder
