[issue16830] Add skip_host and skip_accept_encoding to httplib/http.client

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

I'm not sure this is a desirable feature in the stdlib, but regardless, your solution isn't very scalable: a new argument will have to be added each time someone wants to avoid sending a given header.

Another possibility would be to allow passing None in values of the `headers` dict, in which case the given header wouldn't be send at all.
