Description

For per "session" headers, a HttpClient instance with preconfigured headers can be passed into the constructor of the A2A Client.
https://github.com/a2aproject/a2a-dotnet/blob/aa35e9d66c3448fe83cc6dc2e6b236b7b5af868b/src/A2A/Client/A2AClient.cs#L22

However, for headers that need to be sent for a single request, there currently is no solution. Per-request headers are required for Authentication headers in a multi-user client agent.

## Option 1:

Add a new optional dictionary parameter to each client method that is used to populate the HTTP request headers before calling the server.

## Option 2:

Leverage the metadata property currently defined on request payloads, and possibly use the "extensions" mechanism to define a "https://a2aextensions.com/httpfields" extension that can be processed by the client before sending the request.
