Allow passing custom HTTP headers on individual API calls rather than
only at client initialization time. This enables varying headers per
request while reusing a single cached client instance.
Changes:
- HTTP#get, #post, #json_post, #multipart_post, #delete accept extra_headers: {}
- Client#chat, #embeddings, #completions, #moderations accept extra_headers: {}
- Added tests for extra_headers functionality

@alexrudall any chance we can pass headers per request anytime soon? Otherwise I'm going to look into forking the library and publishing a new gem |
