Research direction
Start by reading R/download.R, especially default_download_headers(), and compare the renv.download.headers behavior described in the linked renv documentation. Review issue #428 for related scope; done should establish and implement a clear option for supplying extra HTTP headers, with tests covering the resulting requests.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Something along the lines of what renv does with the renv.download.headers options setting. Maybe as simple as "exposing" default_download_headers() as an option?
Maybe related to #428? Not sure about the scope there.
