Research direction

Start by comparing fastly::Response::set_status(), with_status(), and from_status() in response.h and response.cpp, then check response.rs for the corresponding implementation. Add the missing get_status() instance method so callers can retrieve a response status, and verify that the C++ API exposes it consistently with the existing status methods.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

fastly::Response::get_status() is missing.
(It's not in response.h, response.cpp, or response.rs.)

We do have fastly::Response::set_status() , fastly::Response::with_status(), and static fastly::Response::from_status(), so this is probably an oversight.
