Feature: New authentication method for HTTP header based authentication

A new authentication method is available for network requests which that supports user defined HTTP header authentication. Multiple custom headers can be included in these requests.

This is useful in various scenarios, such as when a WMS requires an API key that is to be used in a HTTP header with the header key being X-API-KEY, which can now be included in requests from QGIS to authenticate against the WMS endpoint.
