Daniel Chao 8e2e5e4ba8 Improve HTTP headers logic (#1584) ...

* Relax forbidden headers constraints
  - remove restriction on browser-related headers
- allow any glob pattern (no need to end with `/` or `*`, because glob
patterns already require users to explicitly declare prefix matches if
that's the intention)
* Replace `List<Pair<, ...>>`; use `Map<String, ...>` instead
* Use glob pattern strings as an API throughout, instead of `Pattern`
(e.g. in `HttpClientBuilder`)
* Add HTTP headers to message passing API
* Add HTTP headers to executor API (introduces `ExecutorSpiOptions4`)
* Add tests for Gradle, CLI, and pkl-executor invocations
* Improve documentation
* Add `isGlobPattern` API to class `String` for in-language validation
of http headers
* Behavior change: make sure explicitly configured `User-Agent` in
`HttpClientBuilder` can be shadowed by headers (allows users to set
`--http-header "**=User-Agent: My User Agent"` and for this to be the
only user agent).
