[Feature] playwright.request creates a new connection per request

[tzbo]

playwright.request is a very useful utility. But it creates a new connection per request. Got exposes interface to create keep-alive agent. Can playwright as well?

Hi HY Bao (@tzbo)

I think it's because Playwright's APIRequestContext is based on NodeJS HTTP agent which doesn't keep connection alive. I made some modifications on Playwright's side to use hpagent and now connection is being kept alive.

That will be a greate feature. Thanks.
