Research direction

Start in parser.zig and trace how HttpRequest objects are parsed from the HTTP spec file and how assertions identify them. Implement named requests and verify that assertion output uses each request name; the payload does not mention a specific test file to run.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

Add support for naming HttpRequest objects as specified in the http spec file and use the name when running assertions.

Reference:

// TODO: Need to add a name for the request since that can be specified in the http file. This should also be used when running assertions.
