Support mobile User-Agents and the ability to switch between desktop/mobile #160

Hello,

Expected Behavior

Generally, when scraping one would want to use the mobile version of a website since it is smaller and and thus saves on both speed and network traffic. However, sometimes you have information that is only available on desktop (or mobile) and so you want to switch. Therefore it would be nice if Scrapoxy allowed the user to specify what type of UA to use (via a header or something).

Actual Behavior

Scrapoxy just gets a random UA from a list.

I checked the code and this seems fairly trivial to implement. Since I need this feature, I'm going to fork and implement it, so I can make a PR later as well :)

Thanks, Stealthmate
