This one proved to be a little easier given we'd established all of the foundations with a get request:

use hyper::{Body, Method, Client, Request};
use hyper::body::HttpBody as _;
use tokio::io::{stdout, AsyncWriteExt as _};
use url::form_urlencoded;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error + Send + Sync>> {
    let params = vec![("foo", "bar")];
    let body = form_urlencoded::serialize(params.into_iter());
    let client = Client::new();
    let req = Request::builder()
        .method(Method::POST)
        .uri("http://httpbin.org/post")
        .body(body)?;
    let mut resp = client.request(req).await?;

    println!("Response: {}", resp.status());
    while let Some(chunk) = resp.body_mut().data().await {
        stdout().write_all(&chunk?).await?;
    }
    Ok(())
}

We've had to unravel the previous get() request into two parts now: 1) building out the request objects and then 2) passing the request into the client to execute it. Adding on to that Request::builder is how and where we'd add additional headers or otherwise manipulate the request before sending it.
