std.net.curl: https://dlang.org/phobos/std_net_curl.html#.HTTP
(Sorry, I assumed that was a given since it's a standard library 
type. Poor assumption, perhaps.)

I'd rather not write my own cURL wrapper. Do you think it would 
be worthwhile starting a PR for Phobos to get it changed to 
ubyte[]? A reading of https://dlang.org/spec/arrays.html 
indicates the main difference is that that GC crawls void[], but 
I would think that wouldn't matter for a short-lived buffer being 
shoveled into libcurl, which is, by nature, a copy of the same 
data somewhere else in your program...
