Summary: arbitrary headers in check_http

Initial Comment:
For some servers I monitor, a normal HTTP request will
not succeed; it's necessary to add a particular HTTP
header to get it to work. I've modified my copy of
check_http to send this header, but it would be easier
if it provided an option similar to wget's --header, to
send an arbitrary header. It would look something like
this:

check_http -I my.broken.server -h 'Foo: Bar'

and check_http would send:

GET / HTTP/1.0
Host: my.broken.server
User-Agent: check_http...
Foo: Bar

This seems simple enough that I'm not sure it's worth
the trouble to submit a patch, but if you want one, let
me know.
