Transform _normalize_headers into a method of Http class

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a subclass of httplib2.Http that allows a calculated
header in request (eg. request signature).

To make this possible I'm sending some callable objects instead of strings
into the header dictionary and calling this objects in an overrided
_conn_request() method.

But there is a problem with this strategy: the _normalize_headers functions
breaks (it's possible to call the re.sub() method using a callable object
instead of regular expression string).

So, to enable the possibility of overriding this function I'm submitting a
patch that add a _normalize_headers() method inside httplib2.Http class
(that calls the module function) and call this method inside .request().

Sorry, it's not a defect. It's a improvement. (I can't change the issue type)
