Research direction

Start by locating the Authorization Bearer implementation and its existing tests. Add the requested as_str API so callers can obtain the complete Bearer authorization value without constructing it themselves, then add or update tests covering the returned value.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

This API would be useful when full value of the header is needed (to log it somewhere, for example). Currently, there's only Authorization::<Bearer>::token which doesn't specify that the token is Bearer.

Sure, this is easy to do by concating "Bearer " to the token, but that requires an unnecessary allocation.
