containing the atom 'shoot', as it will ensure Cowboy has been able to fully
initialize the socket. Anything you do past this point is up to you!
+If you need to change some socket options, like enabling raw mode for example,

You should definitely look at the cowboy_http_protocol module for a great
example of fast request handling if you need to. Otherwise it's probably
safe to use `{active, once}` mode and handle everything as it comes.
