Every HTTP server should know GET and HEAD requested;
other requests might not be allowed unless the
server had indicated that they are with a "Allow" response header.
@request: the request to query.
Get the From field, if any, from the HTTP header.
@request: the request to query.
[From RFC 2616, Section 14.22]
The From request-header field, if given, SHOULD contain an Internet
e-mail address for the human user who controls the requesting user
agent. The address SHOULD be machine-usable, as defined by "mailbox"
in RFC 822 as updated by RFC 1123.
@request: the request to affect.
@from: the email of the user making the request.
[From RFC 2616, Section 14.25]
The If-Modified-Since request-header field is used with a method to
make it conditional: if the requested variant has not been modified
since the time specified in this field, an entity will not be
returned from the server; instead, a 304 (not modified) response will
be returned without any message-body.
@request: the header to affect.
@t: the time to compare the content's modification time with.
The content should only be transmitted if its modification time
is later than @t.
Get the time which will be compared with the content's modification
time by the server to eliminate unnecessary content transfers.
If this returns (time_t)-1 then there is no If-Modified-Since header.
@request: the request to query.

@is_proxy_auth:
@auth:
Set the Host: header for the HTTP request.
@request: the HTTP Request object to affect.
