Robot Framework Request Logger

HTTP request/response logging in the console with Rich. Independent of RequestReporter: this library sends no HTTP requests and executes no assertions. Robot's console and exit code remain unchanged. Output is buffered until each test finishes.

mode=summary shows every exchange briefly; failures shows full details of explicitly failed assertions or request errors; full shows every exchange in detail. An HTTP 4xx/5xx response alone does not make a test fail. Assertions accept PASS/FAIL only.

Default operation complements Robot's normal console. For examples showing only this library, use poetry run robot --console none tests/visual.robot. quiet still permits Robot errors and warnings. Native output.xml, log.html and exit codes are preserved.

Known limits: buffering is in memory and output occurs at end_test. Abrupt termination may lose pending logs. Pabot workers can interleave output; no cross-process ordering is promised. JSON/text bodies are complete; binary/multipart bodies are summarized. XML field redaction is not supported. Protection affects this library's output only, not RequestsLibrary/Robot's own logs. Typer and pytest/unittest integration are outside this version. Unit tests of implementation use Python's standard test tools.
