+ Bug 1766235_: Handle HTTP headers per RFC 8187
+
+ Previously the glanceclient encoded HTTP headers as UTF-8
+ bytes. According to `RFC 8187`_, however, headers should be
+ encoded as 7-bit ASCII. The glanceclient now sends all headers
+ as 7-bit ASCII. It handles unicode strings by percent-encoding_
+ them before sending them in headers.
