and of course there is nothing stopping the C code from doing anything
it likes. However, programs that break these rules are likely to fail
in unexpected and unpredictable ways.

The runtime/cgo.Handle type can be used to safely pass Go values
between Go and C. See the runtime/cgo package documentation for details.

Note: the current implementation has a bug. While Go code is permitted

The rest of this release is our highest-quality release yet. Though we continue to use the word
_alpha_ in the version name, the only unstable thing in it is some non-final APIs tagged
`@ExperimentalOkHttpApi`. You can safely use this release in production.

 *  Fix: Attempt to read the response even if sending the request failed. This makes it possible
    to handle response statuses like `HTTP/1.1 431 "Request Header Fields Too Large`.
