Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/OAuthSwift/OAuthSwift/issues/211

It would be nice to cancel running HTTP requests. NSURLSessionTask offers a simple API for that (just call cancel), but since the NSURLSessionTask is not exposed in the OAuthSwiftHTTPRequest class we cannot access it.

One could either provide a method on OAuthSwiftHTTPRequest to cancel the request or just expose the underlying task as a property.
