Increase Goose traction

[kazimir-malevich]

The aim is to get more traction, by including Goose on this popular curated HTTP benchmarking list.

"Goose: A modern and comprehensive HTTP load test tool built with and user behaviour defined in - Rust, with distribution included freely as a Gaggle (Rust)"

Yes, it's a good plan to get into any lists out there! Are you going to submit a PR there, or shall i?

Reading through some of the other examples, perhaps copying the existing style more, something like:

Goose: A modern, high-performance and flexible distributed HTTP(S) load testing tool, written in Rust.

I'll create the PR. It might also be an idea posting releases on the Rust subreddit and eventually creating a Wikipedia page.

We've definitely been posting to the Rust subreddit (and received a lot of useful feedback/help there, too):
https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/search/?q=goose

That said, it's been a while since we've posted an update and there's been a lot of improvements lately. I generally wait until we've written a blog with more insight into what's new/different.

A Wikipedia page would be great!

Wikipedia is going to be a hard one, I think we might need more traction and at least v1. I'm sure we'll get there.

Some comparison against Drill and pdc would be helpful, perhaps even collaboration? For instance I could imagine Drill using Goose as a backend.
