Description
From our meeting notes:
Passing HTTP headers into the manager/tunnel
- literal headers can specified by end users https://github.com/coder/coder-desktop-macos/pull/24
- header commands need to be either
- [preferred] cleared by admins, e.g. written to Admin only config (Registry on Windows)
- run as the end user account that specified it

Research direction
Start by tracing how the manager/tunnel receives literal HTTP headers, using the completed work in coder-desktop-macos/pull/24 as context. Determine where header commands are handled and how Admin-only configuration is represented on macOS. Done means command-supplied headers are either cleared by administrators or executed as the end user who configured them.
