Module uses LWP::Simple which is deprecated and should use Http::Useragent instead.

This would also help Star remove LWP::Simple

There seems to be a kind of Catch-22 situation here. If I remember correctly, we can't use https in LWP::Simple because IO::Socket::SSL it can't be included in Rakudo Star. However, the MODULES.txt file of Rakudo star now includes IO::Socket::SSL. If we could use it, it would fix the "disappearing http sites" bug we have been experiencing. So, can we use it now and include it as dependency?

Actually, LWP::Simple is now up to date, as far as I can tell. But I'm not sure why we're using this when we should just be generating HTML...
