Utilities for working with HTTP headers.

## API

```js

import {

  deleteHeader,

  getHeader,

  getHeaderName,

  hasHeader,

  HeaderNotFoundError,

  InvalidHeaderNameError,

  InvalidHeaderValueError,

  setHeader,

  setHeaderName

} from 'http-header';

import type {

  HeaderNameType,

  HeadersType,

  HeaderValueType

} from 'http-header';

deleteHeader(headers: HeadersType, name: HeaderNameType) => HeadersType;

getHeader(headers: HeadersType, name: HeaderNameType) => HeaderValueType;

getHeaderName(headers: HeadersType, name: HeaderNameType) => HeaderNameType;

hasHeader(headers: HeadersType, name: HeaderNameType) => boolean;

setHeader(headers: HeadersType, name: HeaderNameType, value: HeaderValueType) => HeadersType;

setHeaderName(headers: HeadersType, oldName: HeaderNameType, newName: HeaderNameType) => HeadersType;

```

### Behaviour

#### `HeaderNotFoundError` error

`getHeader` and `getHeaderName` throw `HeaderNotFoundError` if the specified header cannot be found.

Use `hasHeader` to check if the header exists before using `getHeader` or `getHeaderName`, e.g.

```js

import {

  hasHeader,

  getHeader

} from 'http-header';

if (hasHeader('Content-Type')) {

  getHeader('Content-Type');

}

```
