Committed new simpler support for adding HTTP headers to requests

As a result of our previous discussions on how to add header fields to HTTP 
requests, I have added a simpler mechanism than what was currently there. 
This means that there now are three ways to add HTTP headers to libwww:
1. A simple association list 
2. A stream oriented approach where the stream (called a generator) has 
direct access to the outgoing stream. That it, it can add any header it likes. 
3. HTTP extension mechanism which is a much better way for handling extensions.
Number 3 is the preferred but it is not fully implemented yet so please be 
patient (or help ;). See
	http://www.w3.org/Library/src/HTReq.html#extra
for details.
At the same time I made the documentation on the request object more up-to-date:
